It will be different afterwards I bet! More sun areas? Landscaping later maybe? Put in a pond! (sorry, always looking for silver linings) Also do you burn wood? I'll take it if you dont... I wish

That fourth pic is the second of like 10ft piles of tree limbs that they’ve cleared and I’d bet they are only about half done.

isle: we do have a fireplace. I’d love to get a wood burner for heat in the winter. I’d happily send all this to you. I imagine you have a bit more space for it all and you’d burn (see what I did there 😂) through it much faster than we would.

And, yes, they are doing some pretty substantial pruning. We only lost one tree. All the rest is just very large limbs and stuff.

So, more sun, which will be very good.

I think I counted once and we have about 36 or 37 big ass oak trees in our yard. That doesn’t include the ornamental trees we have planet we near the house. It’s a little mini forest back there

planet=planted

oooo - that is exciting!

holy heck, those are YUGE trees.
