   I had the pleasure of meeting two men today, both arborists, who absolutely love their jobs.

   It was striking, the passion and enthusiasm they showed.

   Unfortunately, my 100 year old Copper Beech tree has the untreatable Beech Leaf Disease.

   This tree is a monster, with an 8 foot diameter. It’s going to require a crane and logging truck to remove it.

   I’m not sure who was more upset, me or them.

   I received a PHD of information on the disease today, and all things tree related.

     @Kennyben Sorry about the tree. 😢 It has to go, but it is a big loss. And people are rude to complain, as if you would do it for fun. :/

     Seriously, they were all armchair arborists. Accused us of taking down a perfectly healthy tree and destroying the Main St charm.

     I was waiting for a protest outside my home.

     @Kennyben Idiots. I had to have a tree taken down once after a big branch fell of, on my fence, not on the road luckily. Had a competent friend help (not an arborist but a experienced lumberjack). Arborist is a fascinating line of work. 😀

     I just can’t believe how crazy people got over it.
     I was crying over the loss, and then these lunatics start in.

     @Kennyben They want benefit from other people's property but no responsibility. Arrogance :/

     Yeah, I got really angry over their posts.

     I didn’t engage with any of them.
     Made a separate post, made them look like idiots.
     Ignored all comments on my post.
     Screw them.
