Goodbye Tree




Well the adventure is over (in regards to the tree). Thursday morning the guys came to remove the tree from the front of the house. I was happy to see the tree removed from my front doorstep, but sad to know that the tree would no longer be standing proudly in front of my house. I loved that old maple tree. It protected us from the late day sun, and gave us privacy. It was a great tree. My daughter was in amazement watching the tree taken down. The picture is her standing at the front door in total awe as they took care of the stump. It was if she was saying Goodbye Tree. I think she was a little sad to see it go as well.
The tree was removed rather quickly (a little too quickly if you ask me). Don't get me wrong, I wanted tree to be taken care of, but the the guys who did it were so quick. It kept banging back into the house. They knew what they were doing, but I was still nervous. Anyway, the tree is gone, the damage seems to be minimal, and the house has proven itself to us (it sure can protect us).
So all I can say is Goodbye Tree. We will miss you.
