I have a great view - out the window next to my computer. They started around 9 AM, and have topped off 2 of 3, 40 ft.+ trees in my across-the-street neighbor's back yard. Now its 4 trees...they are also chopping a dead one now, near the corner of the property. Gawd - they must be spending several thousands.

 

Fascinating how they put up rigging to control the fall.

 

It's 90+ here now, with heavy humidity. I admire hard work - I can sit and watch it for hours! <_<

where does one see that in Manhattan?

 

I'm sure we can find creative uses for that one on the streets here.

 

But actually, I saw it on the Thruway this week as they were clearing the side trees.

How does it compare to watching the pioneers clearing the forests in the midwest during the days of western expansion?
