These guys are usually pretty good. I think the ground was just softer than 
they expected. They do a good job of cleaning up the little stuff & would 
have taken the trunks & big limbs for a fee. Since Ed's brother burns wood, 
he's taking that out. Just takes longer a pickup load at a time. His chain 
saw is pretty light weight to deal with hardwood, but he's chipping away at 
it. The biggest trunk is about three feet across, the other 2 a bit smaller, 
and many big branches 1-2 feet. We may have an unencumbered yard by May. I 
need to move some Hostas that are planted around the bases of these. I think 
I'll swap them for some daylillies that are now shaded by bushes grown 
large. My shady gardens will have a lot more sun this summer. The roses out 
there will love it.
