Apparently, you don't hear it. After waiting months for our landscapers to catch up on all the jobs the summer's rain delayed, I got out of the shower one morning a couple of weeks ago and heard a chainsaw in the backyard. Peeking through Simon's window, I caught the crew beginning to take down the tree in our backyard.
I scooped up the boys and rushed downstairs but by the time we got there the tree was down. And I didn't hear it fall!
The tree was gone in a matter of hours and we enjoyed watching the backhoe grading our backyard to channel the water away from the foundation. I think I watched it more than Elijah. Who needs cable!
