Stumped for a Title

Peter You may remember where we last left the tree:

stump
This’d be it.

Well, at the crack of 7:30 this morning, they came back to finish the job. A loud truck showed up with a very vicious looking piece of equipment: a stump grinder.

The grinder.

Large
Teeth.

And proceeded to get down to business:

From the porch.

From the street.

A wood chips scattered over a large area of hill
What was the stump, now carved out and refilled with wood chips. All done in just over an hour.

In the coming days/weeks/months, the city will return to remove those and fill it with compost. And to plant two new trees (one for our neighbour, one for us).
