Some Trees Are Gone

Earth And Tree pulled in here one day, and started taking down some trees that needed to come down.
The tree in the cement of the front porch was one to come down.
The guy in the Cherry Piicker started by taking off the small limbs first, then starting at the top, taking it out by sections since that tree was no good for anything except firewood.
Before they started on that tree, he told me that lightening had struck sometime in the lifetime of that tree, and when they got down towards the bottom, they found this - the core just popped out.
They couldn't grind up this stump because of the cement in the porch floor surrounding the trunk of the tree.
He took the stump as close as he could.

Working with the tree behind the house in the flower bed outside the Living Room window. They took down 6 trees and cut out the dead wood in several other trees.
This is what the house looked like when we came home from Morgantown today - with the tree gone from the front porch.
