It is amazing all the work involved in taking the trees down. I will never forget the size of the hole when the stump came out. I know your yard feels so much bigger!

That was a huge tree!<br />It is sad to part with such a grand old tree that has been there for so many years. However, nothing is forever.

The cool shade is nice, but it does sap up all the moisture in the yard and all I can grow is shade loving plants.

But don't worry, we still have plenty of trees left! Now we have a nice combination of sun and shade gardens.Sharon @ Elizabeth & Co.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14197078418514604572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7357970116996873579.post-60381433971487075572013-04-16T19:31:42.403-06:002013-04-16T19:31:42.403-06:00Bon Voyage big tree.

Our neighbour's were taking down their poor old weeping birch yesterday after school. Our neighbourhood is about 55 years old and the birch are all dead and/or dying. Poor Macy was in tears as her 'favourite' tree came down. She went over and got a small branch to save and felt better. We do love our trees. Looking forward to following along on your new gardening adventure!TracyMB @ Crows Feet Chichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12423318209101053785noreply@blogger.com
