In the devastating ice storm last December, many trees in our yard were damaged or completely broken. One was a huge old hickory that lost more than 3/4 of its crown.
We were sad to have to take it down, but decided to do it before the hanging branches fell and killed someone.
We hired a local tree service and they did an amazing job. Bobby, the cutter here, reached out with a 15-foot pole saw, standing in the bucket at full extension, and still could barely reach the tree. I took these pictures from the second floor of our house.
Now the tree will help keep us warm next winter; we have a lot of long-burning hickory to split up for firewood.
