Goodbye Sick-Amour Trees :-(

[changeling67]

I filmed this almost 2 years ago and even though everything was in place to fell them, we idn't have the time or the cash to do it.  Alas, tomorrow the trees come down - basically because they are too dangerous to keep up.  I hate destroying trees.  I said goodbye to them tonight and told them that I would rehouse their baby trees elswhere (I have a couple of sapling babies in pots).  Gutted - won't watch them come down.  I am hoping to plant some twisted hazel at some point, but tomorrow is a sad day.

I also hate to cut down trees. Right now I have two small trees that I have to cut down because they are killing the older trees next to them-what can we do but plant more trees-peace

Here where we live Holland Michigan there are thousands of trees and flowers. Holland is known as tree city. But when we have a bad storm old trees are blown over and fall on houses, cars and block roads/knock down power lines etc. . . I love all the trees, but they are be dangerous when they fall.

hope it all goes smoothly. It's really windy here today so wouldn't be a good day to do it here.
