That would great and everyone likes an explosion now and then.
There is only a few minor details in the way before the work can begin.
I live on top of one of these.
So the explosives would come in pretty handy but I'm a bit concerned as the tree is
about 15' outside my back door. So naturally I'll want to prevent this
I think it would be prudent to try this first
Then I do have to consider the tree.
It is a Red Dragon Japanese Maple. I planted it myself 30 yr ago.
I'm sure it would be easy enough to cut it down and make tooth picks out of but then I'd
have some splaining to do with my neighbor. She is a real tree hugger and environmentalist.
I'm sure I could endure my wife's outrage as I have learned to tune her out when needed but two
women experiencing menopause
and tree withdrawal may be more than I can handle.
Also there is the matter of compensation. While I'm sure you may give me a RIU discount
for labor, my accountant, AKA wife, has informed me there has been a hold placed on all
travel expenses.
So if you don't mind working around the tree without explosives and can walk to work
we may be able to come to some arrangement.
Thank you for your generous offer to do this for me.
I almost forgot the directions to my house.
Cross the Mississippi and continue east until you reach sand. Turn right then Right again.
Go west for 200 mi then look for the burnt down barn. I'll meet you at the barn.
The rest of the way gets tricky.
