I had a twisted up, ugly Chinese elm taken down. I had a guy with a bucket truck take it down since it was leaning towards 2 spruce trees I want to keep. He took a couple down for my neighbors also and I got the wood from them too. 20151122_085943.jpg20151122_154055.jpg
 
I did a lot of cutting and hauling branches out from around the trunk so they could access it easily to cut it the rest down. I Didn't realize there was a limb that was hung up in the tree. Glad it didn't break loose and hit me in the head. It's the one that's nearly horizontal, 20151122_112848.jpg

Yes, they weren't real professional. The neighbors hired them and since they were here I just had them do it. I was gonna let the guy know it was there before he started cutting it down. But was on the tractor. I doubt he even knew it was there.
