"I couldn't possibly fail to disagree with you less."
10 May 2004The delicate balance of natureA Really Large Tree sits on the property line, overhanging my front yard and the one just east of it. If ever it has to be cut down, presumably both owners will have to consult. Early this morning, the combination of fierce winds and relatively dry wood resulted in the fall of a ten-foot branch, and amazingly, it dropped right along the property line — for about two feet, anyway. The rest of it was blocking the street. I hauled the debris into my yard for eventual disposal, reasoning that well, I saw it first. Good neighbor. It's been my experience that this will as likely be resented as appreciated. I've since been living in better neighborhoods, though.

I doubt anyone who doesn't regularly drive down that street in the early morning is even aware of what happened; I'm usually out the door by a quarter to seven. |
