Grandpa Swift got a chainsaw from great grandpa Swift and let us Barrow it. We have a tree in our front yard that has been having a tough time. A few years ago an ice storm broke some branches, then last year we paid a company to top it so that it would grow back healthier, but it didn't really work.
So, Malachi decided to chop it down, you can kind of see a before picture behind Mallory riding her bike, then Malachi on a ladder using the chainsaw.
We decided to leave a stump so we wouldnt have to dig up all the roots and tear up the yard. I think it looks so much better already. There is already ivy growing around the base of the tree so our plan is to let it grow up the trunk and put one of those wooden black bears (from the fair) on the top to watch over our yard.
