Tominator Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 Before After Bush gone! I just so happen to catch my neigbor coming up the road when I took the pic too. I think you can see why the bush needed to go. The stump was a monster. Still can't believe I hacked that all the way out. I was prepared to just saw it off a couple inches below ground level, but decided to do the job right, even though it was 85 and humid as all get out. Ground after some blade work and landscape rake. Gotta' go get some grass seed and straw, and I'll be done. Here's a pic for Andrea and BowJoe looking north. The pine on the right never bothered me, but my wife had a hard time seeing around it for some reason, so I limbed it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
