Before heading off to work out, I snapped some photos through the windows of the progress being made.
TWO HOURS LATER:
I heard another chainsaw out front about 1:30 and much to my delight, the City fellows were back and had finished what they started this morning! The two trunks were gone, all the little debris in the street had been swept up, and a leaf blower did quick work to clean off the sidewalk and my front walkway!
The mayor lives just two blocks away and you better believe I'm going to sing the praises of our City crews to her!! I also want to send a thank you card to the utilities department. As an added bonus, I got one of the famous Newton bears! Come back tomorrow and I'll introduce you to my Hemlock Bear!
