Good riddance to walnuts! (at least in the front yard)

In between keeping an eye on the "man in the bucket" at home, we also headed to a park to play with their friends Abbey and Sam. After watching them cut down our huge walnut out front I can't believe I was trying to talk Jay into doing it ourselves. With all their fancy equipment it took them most of the day to get it down while carefully dropping all the branches and keeping the trunk intact to mill some lumber for us for new projects!



Don't remember who out of the bunch decided we needed to feed the green dinosaur but they all chipped in to toss him sticks, stones and snow.





Sam and Abbey got reacquainted with their favorite park toys after a much too long winter. Ahh, the days of hanging out at a park without all the layers is hopefully coming soon.

Using your sound advice, we moved a black walnut we were given and planted in the back yard to the prairie behind our house so we wouldn't have the mess. Thanks for in info!
