Good bye trees!

All 3 trees on the left had to go... the Cedar on the right was spared...

Ash tree in the neighbors yard dead and covered in ivy...

Healthy but leaning madrona...

...see?

...if it ever would have fallen it would have taken out our living room...

...see?

(They had to pull up right on our lawn)

Getting there...

The Aftermath

The Gnome approves!
