This post is a pictorial of our Friday and Saturday adventure.
This is the site in the front yard after the first set of trees were taken down a couple of years ago. In the meantime another group was showing a tendency to lean towards the dome. Jay contacted Arbor View Tree Service in our area and they came out Friday.
Jay watched as they set up to take three trees down for us before he left for dialysis.
The three pictures below are of the same tree that had a double trunk.
Small limbs and branches were fed into a chipper on the spot by one worker while the other cut the trees up in manageable lengths.

With all the small stuff chipped and hauled away that left only the large logs to be cleared.
On Saturday morning our neighbor John arrived with his front loader and began cutting the logs shorter for carrying them in the bucket.
Several pieces had to be cut in order to load them.
It took three trips between our house and John’s to clear away the area. They were large loads as you can see.
This is what is left now. As you can see we have more trees that are dead or dying behind thus clump but they will have to wait until we can scrape together some more moola.
The yard is now clear except for a few equipment tracks and so our adventure ends for now!
