So last time I checked, eight in the morning started at 8:00AM. So when Tiffany came to let me know we had a giant crane in our driveway at 7:00AM (seconds after I had pushed my snooze button for a few more moments of sleep), the first words out of my mouth were “You’re kidding?” I find it kind of funny that we never ask this question when someone really is kidding, but when we wish people were kidding! Nothing quite gets the body up and going like a good shot of adrenaline! After grabbing glasses and throwing on decent clothes, Tiffany and I headed out to catch some of the action . . . .
Mom was really sad to see the tree come down, and I admit it is always hard when you need to remove a living thing. But I am super happy with how open it all looks! The house will be getting quite a bit more sun now. The downside is that it will be warmer in the summer, but that also means it will, hopefully, be warmer in the winter too. Now all we need to do is split all these massive logs lying around; that will be the big challenge!

I was so sad when George took out one of my giant trees near the house. Many of my birds never came back :(
ReplyDeleteThe house looks so tiny next to that enormous crane!
