Again!!

Again we have to deal with a neighboring
tree branch coming down.  Two weeks ago
we had high winds and another branch coming
down.  After we sent them a letter that this is
coming down they only tie a rope on it.  We
are taking bets how long this will stay this way.
Yes, again we had to contact the insurance
company as it's right over our fence.   There
is no way we are going to take care of this.
Not our tree!!

Earlier this year we had another branch
come down from the east neighboring tree,
just missed the classic car.  Needless to
say they weren't happy to find this large
limb in their yard.  Why should we pay
to remove their junk??  Our yard debris
is full and they are not our trees.

3/23/2010

About mid morning there was a sound of
chainsaw!!  Yep, finally they were going
to have the issue solved!   Not!!  They had
their tree service out and let's just say they
left a mess!!  Come on folks, hire a tree arborist
to assess your trees not a cheap service!
The saga will continue as they are now top
heavy and trimmed upward to 25 to 30 feet
from the ground.   They remove lots of dead
or broken branches but left some also.  The limb
that had fallen was over 25 footer and I watched
them several times hit the fence.  Not only that
but they were on the retaining wall and hands
on the fence to try to look over.  Our fence is 6
foot so you know they couldn't see anything with
out climbing onto it.

No one let us know they were going to do work
until afterwards when someone came to the door
and requested to clean up our yard.  Say what??
I have made a request and told all our neighbors
that no access to our yard during growing season!
He was lucky I didn't call the Sheriff as 'Our yard'
is clearly posted.  I don't need some inexperienced
person walking all over our garden beds.

Limbs were dropped and several of the plants markers
were hit.  I had a couple branches hit plants, what can
one say but they are careless again!!

The last photo is of the lowest branch that was
bent due to the branches that fell on it.  It was
left and we are just speechless!  Why leave this
lower branch that was damaged?   But again
one needs to hire an arborist to make sure
that the tree is done correctly!
