Removed a couple trees from the front of our house #TBT

Posted By on April 11, 2024

Brenda has been bugging me to remove a couple of pine trees (one 30 yo Blue Spruce that was nearly dead) from in front of the house (photo – house without the drooping pine). They were on the “to-do” list last year, but I’ve procrastinated until this year … and in my mind, I was planning to take care of them this summer .. cough, cough. 

House without the drooping pine

We had a wind storm and it took out tons of branches and limb which we took care of last weekend, but the neighbor lost a White Pine. So while Precision Forestry was in the neighbor, I opted to have them quote and remove these trees. Although this isn’t the first time I’ve used an outside company to remove a tree  … it is usually something I have done myself since I worked cutting trees and firewood as a part-time job in high school. It feels wrong to have hired someone?
