Hats off to the "Tree Men"

There ended up being five trees which these men took down. It is always fun to watch how methodically the branches come off, then sections of the trunk, and finally the "pole". There will be lots to clean up, but our neighbors have great friends and relatives to help, and our family will lend a hand, too. I'm sure there will be lots of fun and food in the mix! There may even be some leftover firewood in the deal for us--which is great, because we heat our home with wood! This wood will have to sit and season, but when it's ready, it will be greatly appreciated as we sit in the family room and enjoy the warmth. There is nothing like the warmth of a fire in the stove as you snuggle down in your favorite chair with a good book!
