Fear of heights

IMG_1525

Today we had a couple of pine trees removed from our property. They were tall - at least 50 feet high. Since I'm afraid of heights, I was impressed by the way the trimmer climbed the tree, wizzed through the branches with his trusty chain saw and dropped them branch by branch to the ground. At one point, though, the tree was swaying enough I had to look away. All around, it was pretty impressive to watch.

IMG_1523I must admit, it's all a little bittersweet. I have wanted these trees (and others) gone for years. Now that they are gone, it looks so barren, it seems a little sad.

  1. Up a tall tree with a chain saw - eek! Not for me! Glad there are people that can do this though!
