Extreme Gardening, Part 2
My cousin Trent gave me a hand today, helping to cut down and haul off to the dump a number of small trees that were in the way or otherwise causing problems. We cut down two old lilacs, a handful of small elm trees, and one unidentified tree that may or may not have been an elm. We cut a few branches off of the tree on the east side of the house, but determined that it's going to have to wait until spring, as it will be much easier to remove when it's warmer out and when there are more people around (to ensure that the tree and its branches fall away from, and not on, the house).
There was much giggling involved, mainly because we seemed to always be dangerously close to poking each other with the tree parts we were trying to move, or because we were inadvertantly poking ourselves with branches. Thankfully, we didn't damage ourselves in the process, but we did wreak havoc upon the trees.
