TIMBER!!!! (Cottonwood down)

On a Wednesday morning afternoon in April (the 9th) we were going to go outside for a bit before naps.  On our way out we saw 5 men standing around our Cottonwood!  They came with the gear to do the job and were just scoping out the situation.   So we weren't outside long before they told us we should go in because they were ready to cut!


The boys were intrigued.


Taking a last photo of the tree up!  Ha ha.  One of the guys posing by the tree for a picture!


Taking a large branch to the truck.






Nathan went running upstairs and came back dressed like this...

He said he was a "city worker".  I told him the guys were from the city, I guess.  They are from the city.  They work in forestry.  But I probably told him someone from the city was coming more than I mentioned forestry!



We went upstairs for a better view!








And it's down!  Here's a video of the process.




Their truck at the end of the path.

You will miss that shade. It is good that this wasn't your expense.
