Well the storms over the weekend wrecked havoc on my yard and trees. I bought some tools from Sherrill Tree so we could go out and clean up the branches that are down and to trim the trees in preparation for the coming winter. I usually do it twice a year. Once in the spring, in time for the spring and summer storms and again in the fall. I kind of dropped the ball this year, because I didn’t do it earlier in the year. I know that I should have but I spaced it.
Our weather was mild this past spring which was why I forgot about it. It will be okay though. Now that it is being done, I will only have to have do it once this year. Next spring I will make sure to get it done when I usually do. I certainly don’t want to have any accidents happen like my next door neighbors. They had a really large branch come down on their porch roof and had to spend a lot of money fixing it. It would have been cheaper for them to have the trees trimmed then to have to deal with fixing the house too.
