Why the Willow Weeps...or Doesn't Rather.

This is a picture of our weeping willow tree as of before yesturday afternoon. Its a rather big tree as you can tell by the mammoth truck parked directly beneath it. Well my dad has been wanting to get it trimmed, hence the mammoth truck. Yesturday afternoon, as I slept peacefully in my bed, the tree trimmers came and butchered the tree. Amazingly enough I wasn't awakened by this dandy peace of equipment ...

...this wood chopper was grinding through half the tree right outside my bedroom window. Evidently I sleep like a bear.

Anyways, when I did wake up I had no idea any of this had taken place while I was sleeping. So when I walked into the kitchen and looked out the patio window I was rather shocked to see this... ...my exact reaction to what used to be a happy weeping willow tree, was "Oh my goodness! It looks so stupid!" Feel free to compare the photo from before with the photo after, to validate my statement. It's like the tree lost 1 ton and in only a couple hours! Amazing. And just for those of you who don't know him, that's my dad leaning against the tree. He's cool.

Side note: Hot and Spicy Cheezits are excellente! Ya gotta try 'em!
