I have some photos to share this morning. First, some
Fred and I heard the chainsawing Wednesday evening, so we walked up to Jamie and Marie's to watch. We got there after Calvin had limbed the tree all the way up, and just in time to see him take it down in
And speaking of chips, Calvin told me he always has chips to get rid of. He brought a load for Jamie and Marie, and I'm going to have a little of theirs for my flower beds. A whole load would be way too
We have been worried about some trees near our power line, too, but I've thought it was too bad to put big, healthy trees into
I think the photos speak for themselves - it was a big tree, and everything came down where it was supposed to. In the last picture, that's Calvin sitting on the grass after the chain had slipped off the bar of his saw. Anyone who has used a chainsaw knows what a hassle that can be. It meant he had to come down from the tree, fix the chain and then climb all the way back up. But that's part of the deal, I guess.
We watched from Jamie's new deck - one story up from the driveway. He was just finishing putting the stair railing together and you can see the temporary clamps holding it in place. The deck was a great vantage point to watch the tree being taken down.
And now, back to the History of West Danville!
