Here are the 4 photos I wanted to share on photobucket. I edited the first time to make them fit on this page. The photos on photobucket are higher quality and not blurry. Thanks! http://i219.photobucket.com/albums/cc258/dejaymiller2/IMG_0005.jpg http://i219.photobucket.com/albums/cc258/dejaymiller2/IMG_0004.jpg http://i219.photobucket.com/albums/cc258/dejaymiller2/IMG_0003.jpg http://i219.photobucket.com/albums/cc258/dejaymiller2/IMG_0001.jpg

How much would it cost to have this water oak tree cut down?
Q
Comments (5)
Ken is right. The cost of having a tree removed is all over the place, and depends a great deal on where you live, how close to the house (or neighbors) the tree is, ease of removal, etc. We had some local yahoos remove some trees in the back for a very good price. They left a total mess of the backyard...ruts, dead grass, small limbs stuck in dirt, etc. We bit the bullet to pay more for a better company when we need trees removed from the front yard removal --- and they did a great job! They kept the grass nice - no tire tracks, divots, damage to the house, etc. They laid down plywood on the grass on which they drove their bobcat to remove the wood. I guess it all depends on the type of service that you want/need. Also, get an estimate for removal of the stump at the same time. You'll pay more for removal of the tree wood, and stump chips. If you want to save the tree wood for your fireplace, then let them know.

Would you have this tree cut down?
Q
Comments (15)
Splitting at the fork? Well, maybe yes, maybe no. How likely trees are to split at V shaped forks depends on the kind of tree. Everyopne knows elm trees that produce these V shaped forks as a part of their normal growth habit, and seldom split. As for pine trees, some kinds will split rather often, other kinds of pine trees virtually never split. For example, on my timberland I have thousands of red pine, white pine and Norway spruce. The white pine and Norway spruce will often split, but I have never, ever seen any of the red pine trees split--not a one, in spite of having dozens with forks. So, what you need to do is determine the kind of pine you have, and then do some observations of the same kind of pine tree elsewhere in your area. Do you see others that have split? Or do you see a lot of trees forked much like yours doing just fine? Not all trees are alike. --Spruce

banana stopped growing without fruit. should i cut it down?
Q
Comments (3)
i went ahead and started to cut the tree down, figuring i would come across the banana flower in the stalk somwhere, and sure enough i did and cut through half of it with my saw. my question is whether you think it would have come up and fruited if i continued to wait. like i said above, 2 months of no leaf growth with no appearance of the flower, so i figured it wasn't coming. last time i got bananas, it was only 2-3 weeks until the appearance of the flower after leaf growth stopped. also last time i got that final small leaf that stood straight up. i didn't get it this time. this time, the majority of the leaves were starting to yellow/brown. thanks

Men's Room waiting line. Do you see the Bull dog in the middle looking around for a convenient bush? Typical male. LOL

Please tell me how you can tell the pic is "Obviously photoshot". I just don't see what gives away this pic as enhanced by photoshot. It would probably help me in the future not getting fooled if I could learn the clues you see.

It isn't impossible to have many well trained/behaved dogs do whatever you have trained them to do.

I think Sparky might be a lab/dobie mix. I was told he was a lab/rott mix by the pet_ rescue but he is long and lean. I am working on a Facebook for him at Renee's insistence. She and her coworkers love to hear about his antics.
