Timber!

Before I begin this post I have 2 things that must be said first:

#1 To all of my neighbors who were at their house on Monday: I am terribly sorry about the noise, alas chainsaws can be loud.

#2 Nanette: This was all Ryan's idea! Keep that in mind as you look at the pictures.

Alright we can begin.

Sunday night Trent and Jenny came over for dinner and games. Somehow we got on the subject of Ryan needing a chainsaw because he wanted to get rid of the trees in the backyard. It just so happens that Trent has a chainsaw...
Before


During: It's amazing what you can do with a harness and a chainsaw




I was not there for the second tree so there aren't any pictures of that one. Which I was ok with since it was Ryan's turn to be in the tree. Turns out it was a good thing I wasn't there, Ryan ended up cutting part of the harness and almost cut the safety line. (Once again HIS idea to do this)  But by the time I was home from work both trees were down.

Right now my back yard looks like the perfect habitat for a beaver if there was a river running through it. The first tree got picked up and taken away but the second is still there because of lack of time. Hopefully on one of Ryan's days off this week we can get it picked up and hauled away.

I also don't have an after picture yet! I didn't want all of the wood on the ground so you'll have to wait for that one.
