The Lorain tornado of '86 ripped down 5 big oaks along my back boundry. When I got home from work that day I felt like I was driving up the wrong driveway the skyline had changed so much.

After the 2008 ice storm an out of state tree outfit was in the area doing final trimming days after power was back.

I caught them just coming up the street and asked how much to trim my damage since it was across the street from the power lines. A $100 took care of a 300' frontage with considerable damage. Watching the guy in the bucket with a hydraulically operated telescoping chain saw was a blast. A couple of other workers even cleaned up what was on the lawn initially and fed it into the big chipper they were towing.

I guess the outfits in CT figure all the yuppies can pay the big bucks Grin
