A gnarly old nasty weed tree has been choking and stunting a beautiful Norwegian Pine beside our pond for years now. Relentless grapevine tendrils have used it to reach and then strangle the limbs of the innocent pine, which has duly recoiled to avoid this unruly, selfish neighbor.
Yesterday we appealed again to the good graces of the golf course superintendent, asking him to step up and destroy this threat to Norwegian pride. This time, he sprang into immediate action, ordering a truck and a chainsaw operator to make quick work of this public nuisance.
The offensive weed tree has been removed from the premises and the horizon made safe for the righteous Norwegian pine.
All a good day's work, we'd have to say.
Thanks, Duane.

Cleared and free, the Norwegian pine will expand into the new space, as today's hero picks up the sticks
and removes all traces of the miscreant. |
