We've decided to install solar panels on our house so 12 trees had to go.  Half of our forest still remains to the left of the above photo.

What's left (this is just some of the firewood stacked in our yard)

On the plus side, there's more light in the backyard and the rear bedroom.  On the negative side we've lost our privacy.  Folks walking up 11th Avenue can now see into our yard.

There'll be more light for my vegetable garden as well. But it will take some getting used to.

The solar panels won't be installed till this fall.
