Timber Part 2: The Trees Come Down

This is the beginning of something beautiful. The trees have been coming down. I mean literally. I had no idea that it could happen this fast. They arrived around 7:30 this morning and by 8am five trees were down. They have come down so quickly and accurately and neatly. It is an interesting process to witness. The unbelievable part is the amount of sun that is now shining through. It is fantastic. I am so happy. It is sunny and bright. These are some of the logs from early this morning. I am excited that our neighbor, who is doing the excavating, negotiated a very fair price for the wood so we will be getting back a large chunk of what we spent in the first place. WAHOO!! Those cedars are making me happy today. Turns out these two men that are doing the work are working fast because they have already done so much more than I expected them to have gotten done. It is 2:30 in the afternoon and they have done all that I asked and then some minus the trees in the front of the house, because those have to be done at the end so as to not block the route out. We were even able to get rid of disgusting, deadish shrubbery and some snags that were an eyesore. This really is property changing. I can't wait until SuperMoto gets back into town so he can see the amazing results of our decision to have the land worked on a little bit.
