Tree, Be Gone!!!!

Trees trees everywhere. We liked the trees, but they kept pooping in our pool, and we got tired of cleaning it. they also looked really rickedy. some were dead, some sprouts were trying to die.

There were just too many reasons why we didn't like them. Plus our neighbors tree was HUGE and it was providing better shade then those dinky ones were.

So we cut them all down last fall. they did provide a little bit of privacy, but that wasn't important enough to us.

We killed the wimpy pine trees as well. We aren't a fan of dead grass circles under pine trees.

these are pictures of the backyard before we bought  the house.

This is after the slaughter.

I don't know why, but this reminded me of world war 2, and the gas chambers, with all the heaping bodies. Yeah i know, its a morbid thought. Trees were alive too you know. I guess I'm a tree murderer?

These trees are still there to this day. It got too cold too fast for us to chop them up.

We also had a fun/SCARY encounter with a squirrel, I think we took his home away from him.

I thought he was going to jump and attack me. it was traumatizing.

Yes I worried about his sharp mini talons scratching my legs to bits, while i was taking the video. I was in defense mode. Before the video i got a little closer and he ran down his perch and and ran towards me. i might have screamed like a girl, and i might not. Bonnie can confirm what exactly happened.

My friend when we were little fed a squirrel out of his hand, and he gently took the nut. but when we looked at his hands, he was sliced almost to the bone, and he didnt feel it at all. THATS what i was scared of.
