After three years …..

….it has finally been removed.

When Hurricane Dorian came by on September 7th 2019, it was described as ~ “The most destructive storm to hit the region on record brought widespread heavy rain, pounding surf, damaging storm surge and severe winds.” ~ and caused wharfs to be destroyed, roofs were ripped from buildings, hundreds of trees broke or fell and even cranes were toppled. In our backyard the only casualty was one which fell over.

Much to the joy of the local squirrels and chipmunks who run up and down the toppled tree, it has been stuck at an angle of 30° for three years now.

On a visit from Ontario, I asked Buddy Rejean to bring with him his chainsaw (I no longer do chainsaws …!!!). It is common knowledge that he likes to cut down trees. So, with additional help from Buddy Brett and his tractor from across the road, the tree has now safely been removed.
