This morning


we're watching the tree pruners at work on our monkey pine. It sure needed some help.



They're also pruning some of the holly tree's branches back from the electrical lines.


They brought out the chain saw, which meant that we had one move to the inside. Hello Dolly doesn't like the unmuffled sound of a chain saw. Her sister was willing to hold her hands over her ears.


But, once they started up the chipper on the orange truck,...


...everyone moved inside to watch.


I'm getting updates on how many big branches they're removing. Hannah's hoping they'll leave some stray branches behind: "As soon as they're finished, we'll have a treasure hunt in the front yard!"
