Tree pruning season

On a blue day, it is great to get out an prune the Apricot tree.  Problem branches are easy to see in the Winter. When working overhead, always wear your hard hat, gloves, and protective eyewear.

This Ponderosa Pine which will get 50 feet tall and 40 feet wide was planted in a space 4' x 3' in front of a town house.  It may have been a live Christmas tree yeas ago.  It is doomed by ignorance of a human.
