On Friday, we cut down two perfectly healthy, magnificent Blue Spruce trees in our backyard. We pushed this day off for almost a year, but it finally came. Based on the previous owner's recollection, the twin Spruces were planted sometime in the early 1970's. For some reason, they planted them directly in the middle of the yard. From our deck, the view looked liked this. We had no yard because of them. They're both were perfectly healthy. However, we needed to start clearing the yard for our garage. For the past year, we've tried (probably more than we should have) to find a home for both of these trees. First, we looked at Big Trees Inc - a company that specializes in finding mature trees and providing them to folks who want large trees immediately. Big Trees Inc comes over, digs the whole tree out with the roots and all, scoops it on a truck and pays the tree "owner" a few bucks. They then take that mature tree and sell it for thousands! Sounds
