There have been several people in my neighborhood selling their houses lately. I met one of the new owners this past week, guy seems nice enough. I was out during the day today, but when I came back this evening I went to cut my front lawn and a neighbor's lawn. Well I am walkin the mower back to my house and I see the people pulling brush away from the house. I put my mower off to the side of the road and went over to investigate. As I got closer I noticed 2 people up on the roof of the house with an 029 chain saw. They were cutting branches off of a beech tree which was right next to the house. The lean was to the house. I offered to help but they were already past that point as they had a notch cut about 1/2 - 3/5 of the way through the tree. They started to fell it soon after. The owner was on the ground with the saw and 2 people were at the edge of the roof pushing the tree off the house. I found this very interesting as well as dangerous. While I watched these people hap hazardly get the tree to the ground, I said a quick prayer. I wound up getting the tree job there as they want about 20 more trees cut (all small) I also got some landscape work to do. I am just glad that nobody got hurt when they did the work today.
