... and that's exactly what the tree guys did today--- climbed up into our ancient pecan trees and gave them all a very good trimming and thinning out. And, wonder of wonders, these two tree guys showed up on time last week to give me an estimate, and then they showed up today, right on time, to do the work. It's not often that such blissfully perfect things happen with workmen out here, so it was a nice surprise.
The cats weren't happy with the tree guys though..... I had to confine Mickey inside the garage and the attached coop, and Gatsby came into the house for the afternoon.... and Sweet Pea kept going from window to window, making sure the workman who was climbing the tree was doing it correctly. As long as Sweet Pea is inside the house and watching the world through the windows, he is one fearless cat.
Now that the pecan trees are trimmed, I'm hoping that branches don't keep falling from those trees every time a breeze blows through them. The brush piles are filled with sticks and branches and small limbs that I've been carrying to those piles for the past couple of years. Now that I've found such a great tree-guy, I'll be calling him once a year to keep everything in check.
