A big day here in our little property! A local contracting team arrived to cut down two rather large trees. you can see the before and after photos!
They cleaned everything up right to the last speck of dust!
Three good things;
1. I was able to offer hot drinks and huge peanut cookies for PM tea. They even did an extra tree!
2. There was more light as you can see but the view of the neighbouring house is a bit more obvious ! However we get on very well with her.
3. Started my new book - it now says 15 hours to the end! Good grief - might be next year that I find out what happened!
Lots if light! You will be feeling rather exposed but soon get used to it! Lots of wood for the Woodburner! Fifteen hours will soon go if it's a good book! Struggling a bit with mine, called A Dangerous Journey. Haven't reall got into it yet as I've been tired at night so not read much.
What an unbelievable difference it made. How nice to have the two photos for comparison. It does look like an entirely different space with those trees gone. Cookies and hot drinks are always good for getting an extra tree cut too.
@happypat I read about 5 pages a day, Pat which would take just a few minutes off that 15 hours! Its always good to pick it up. The neighbours are very grateful
fabulous comparison and what a difference two trees make. when i'm reading a good book, everything is on hold till i finish it. or else i'd forget what had happened the last time i was reading. :-D
@s4sayer Plant stuff that likes space and light, Margo! There are a few kowhai growing we have found under all this foliage! Might encourage them and thence birds!
