Come on spring! Where are you?

Had to get the Xmas lights out of the maple in front as the arborist is coming this week. Inspired me to do a little more winter pruning myself. Dan helped give the chestnut a major cut back. It was starting to grow over the front of Virginia’s house. It’s not in a good spot, but it is a volunteer that has been here longer than I have.

Cut back the figs as well. They are a good two inch thick trunk, but with this winter, and no covering, all I hope is that the roots are still alive and it will grow back.

Pretty much still four inches of snow on the ground and a lot of ice. Just breaking one degree in the heat of the sun.
