Trees Gone, I Gotta Learn How to Face It ...

I got an e-mail at work from Val this afternoon, stating that the cleanup crews were finally removing the tree limbs, branches and debris from our lawn on Norwood Avenue. When I got home, it was great to see the lawns on our side of the street without tall piles of tree detritus, although we now have large piles of leaves on them. Walker Evans, on the other hand, is none too pleased that there are less tree parts to sniff or pee on during his walks.
The timing of the tree limb cleanup, the day before Halloween, makes things safer around here and elsewhere for Halloween, although the street light on our lawn easement remains out of service. Knowing that there are still people without telephone, cable and/or Internet service, we know we are rather fortunate.
