We did it! After much debate over removing the large evergreen ourselves or hiring a professional to do it we decided to tackle it ourselves. Friday night Janelle's Dad, my neighbors Mike, Todd, Jamie, and myself successfully (without any injury or property damage) took down "Big Ben". As you can see we first trimmed it...
Attached guiding wires (just in case)
Cut it down and trim it with 3 chainsaws (its good to have friends with power tools).
And of course...toast our success with Red Eye.
It is nice to have such good neighbors and proves why we chose to add on instead of moving. All the neighborhood kids along with Megan, Jaden, Jordan, and Austen helped pick up branches and stack wood. We accomplished this task all within 2 hours.

Were I your neighbor, I could have helped with the consumption of the red eye.
