THE FOOTNOTES

THE RENOVATION OF THE HOUSE IS ALMOST COMPLETE. IT WAS THOUGHT NECESSARY TO REMOVE FOUR TREES WHICH WERE LEANING IN THE DIRECTION OF THE NEWLY RESTORED BUILDING. IN THE EVENT OF A HURRICANE, OR OTHER SEVERE WIND STORM, ONE OF THESE TREES WOULD BE CAPABLE OF HEAVILY DAMAGING THE HOUSE IF IT FELL ON IT. HERE ARE PICTURES OF THE TWO STRADDLING THE SHED===BEFORE AND AFTER. I SUPPOSE OTHER TREES IN THE VICINITY COULD DRAW A LESSON FROM WHAT HAPPENED TO THESE TWO: " YOU THREATEN MY HOUSE, AND YOU WIND UP IN SOMEBODY'S FIREPLACE." PICTURES OF THE OTHER TWO WILL APPEAR ON THIS BLOG WHEN THEY ARE REMOVED.
