Tree Cutting

We have a Maple Tree very close to our sun room that needs to be cut down. We love Maple trees and hate to have it cut but we feel it's necessary. It's too close and it makes such a mess on our sky light windows.
So Ted brought his tree climbing equipment Friday. Saturday after the rain stopped Jerry and Ted got busy. Ted climbed up, way up. It's very scary to watch and very dangerous to do. But Ted is good and careful and determined. One thing that made this job even harder was that we have electric wires going right near the tree to be cut. Branches fell over the wires but they were able to get them off.  It was such a big job they didn't finish it yet, but will work on it some more next time Ted comes. He did cut a lot of branches off so it's better now anyway.
Lord, thank You for helping Ted and Jerry and keeping them safe.

Ted was really high - I didn't know he had that skill or nerve. I'm sure glad he could help with that tree.
