The wind blew. A limb fell. I got a call.
This first tree is 60" at chest high, and has a 50' straight section which tapers down to about 36". Age estimate of 350 yrs. Over the last 10 years, it has started a steady lean towards the 150-year-old farm house. I called in back up for this one. An old faller friend has one of those rail saws that you see here. He will bust them into quarters. To close to the house to pop it apart with powder.
This much smaller trees roots tipped up and it leaned into the next tree. Both are coming down in the morning when the tree service arrives. I will be there with the mill.
