I got home from reffing to find the neighbor's tree almost gone
and the tree people's truck parked in our new grass area.


In my typical Larry David manner, I was worried about our new sidewalk and driveway apron.


I got to watch the "wedge" operation.


But I didn't get too close.


The tree is saying "ohhh noooo."


I went across the street to watch the final moments.


Surprisingly, they used their pickup truck to apply.


Ring around the gum tree.


Michael Moore helping out?


Just about ready


I moved back a bit.


And hid behind the neighbor's tree.


Chainsaw in action.

In a gentle rainfall, Leah demonstrates the width (at the narrowest point).


I believe this is called the butt end of the log.
(Ha ha ha!)


November 23, I finally get around to snapping a picture of the ground-up stump.


And our house, still surrounded with trees.
