We've been having crazy storms for a few weeks. One night we had more than a foot of rain, based on measurement using an uncovered garbage can (I can't find any weather records that verify this - it must be extremely localized). Anyway, on July 13, Tina and I were lying in bed listening to the lighting, waiting for our house to explode, when we heard an awful splitting sound. This wasn't followed by the expected sound of something heavy hitting the ground, but the next day Tina noticed this:
That is a very large branch of a white pine in our front yard. It's higher than the roof of our house, so obviously we needed someone to take care of this. The thing is, once these tree people start looking, they start noticing all kinds of dead branches that are waiting to fall on someone's house - or their head!So, for less than the price of one thousand cups of really good coffee, we're getting all the trees trimmed.

Yikes! It's a good thing you're getting that taken care of. Coffee's overrated anyway.
They were here all morning, and removed a ton of dead branches, but now that they're gone, I can hardly tell that they did anything.
I understand this is a good thing. It shows that they worked precisely.
But, where did all that money go?
