It was both interesting and a little scary watching the team from Family Tree Services removing trees that had been stuck by lightening.  Their safety practices were second to none but the trees were not particularly stable.  Ben, a New Zealander, proved his fitness over and over as he made his way up trees and leapt between them, all the time carrying equipment that I find heavy even when standing firmly on the ground.  What a professional team - and thanks to all the guys from Family Tree Services for their expert service.
