Goodbye trees

This summer has been an interesting one for us. We have done four big home improvement projects but only one of them was our choice. First was the sidewalk, then the new oven, then painting and then this one, cutting down trees. Last summer our neighbors cut down their aspen trees. They also put root killer on them so they could remove the stumps easier. Well, if you know anything about aspens, they are connected to each other. So when our neighbors put root killer on their stumps, it also killed two of our trees. Today he and Darren cut the trees down.


















I put this picture in because you can see the neighbor across the street watching. Projects like this always draw attention.

My Aspen trees are dying a slow death so I'm probably going to have to do the same thing within a few years. So sad!!
At least the neighbor helped, since it was his fault and all. :)

We have Aspen trees in front of the house we are remodeling that are also dying.
