a 55 footer today with the hemlocks. Dead and dying trees only. There is the Hemlock woolly adelgid disease that is killing hemlocks on the east coast, including mine.

Ash trees on my yard also have that emerald ash borer that is killing a few.

And the Hickory Bark Beetle is devastating the bitternut hickories.

There were tree roots in our sewer pipe or whatever. $350 for the plumber.

I really hate hearing that about the beautiful Hemlocks. They are probably one of my favorite trees for sure. When the neighbors had someone cut down the four between our yard a couple years ago I was sick for days. Even several neighbors said it looked like a terrible disaster hit our area.

Trees are the one thing my friend from England said the first thing when she arrived for a visit was, “MY ALL THESE TREES! I never guessed you would have so many tall trees”!
