Trimmed!

This is what has been happening around here this week. The trees are now severely pruned and are below the power lines. We (our boys, that is) will now be able to complete the job without any hassles with power lines. We will be once again very exposed to the prevailing westerly winds, but it had to be done. The next planting will be smaller growing trees!

Looks like a lovely day where you are and just imagine what the regrowth is going to look like when it starts

[Pat Knowles]

Much neater but as you say not as big a wind break. Looks a lovely Spring day!

A very neat job.. looks like the guys did a good job cleaning up as they went.. now to decide what is going in it's place..

[Maggiemae]

I was going to mention regrowth too! Might have to do more trimming then! In the meantime it looks good!

[Taffy]

That was quite a complicated project. The end result -- nice green area!

[Yao RL]

Done. What a great job, the trees by them must be very happy to gain more daylight.

[Valerie Chesney]

I agree, a BIG job, well done

[Donna]

Well done, ive been in the garden also it feels great to finish a big job

[Graham Thresher]

Great images.

[Chris K]

pity they had to come down. You'll have to choose something quick growing

[Issi Bannerman]

Wow, that was quite a job, wasn't it?! Nice to see all the different images of the stages of the work.

[Joyce]

Shame you had to take them down but it looks as though they've done a good job. Interesting shots.

[Babs]

Lovely collage, shame you had to cut them back, but they have done a neat job.

[Rachel]

It looks a bit funny now, but will look great when they bush up again,

[Nick]

Great collage - really tells the story. The end result looks very neat.

[M0ments in time]

They have done a very professional job, a good story board of the event

[Milanie]

That took quite some equipment - major undertaking. Who would realize how quickly they would grow tall enough to interfere with the power lines. Like the way you showed the work done.
