Pruning!

How many people does it take to cut down a branch that is crowding your new palm tree?!




FOUR!

Roping the branch (a hammer tied to the end of the rope!)

Dad holds just the right tension on the branch.

I get the tractor into position.
All together now.................
Crash!
Why FOUR people...................my Mom is taking pictures , of course!

    What a team! I think it's so neat that you guys get this time together every year...and you get so much done, to boot!

    Who knew that a plain old John Deere tractor (not that any of them are plain or old), when combined with four crazy people, could double as a cherry-picker? Don't show this picture to David!
