Bret made this wonderful built-in for the Master Bedroom.

Isn't he handy?

We got this rug for the Living Room:

This light for the Dining Room:

Deforestation

Sadly, two wonderful trees had to come down in our front yard because they were deceased. One was about 120 years old and the other about 20 or 30 years old.

See the guy climbing up the tree?

He has a chain saw hanging from his belt as he climbs.

They don't just cut the trunk at the bottom and yell, "TIMBER". Instead, a guy climbs up the tree and cuts off the branches. He loops a rope around a branch that he isn't going to cut down yet, then ties the end to the branch he is going to cut down. So when it's falling, its plummeting path is controlled by the ropes.

And that's all I saw (pardon the pun) because I went back to reading my history book.

It was all too sad to lose my little tree pals.
