All that's left of my apple tree

[Siwsan]

I finished snipping and bagging the smaller branches and now I'm awaiting my brother and his chain saw. I filled 13 yard waste bags with debris from the 2 trees and have some nice limbs that will be sectioned into fireplace wood and left to dry until next Winter.

Hard to believe this whole 'journey' started a week ago today. The weather was dire. Today it is sunny, partly cloudy and the temperature is still in the 70's.

1. Sad to loose a generous tree. I love my Apple tree

I guess there was a storm that did the damage. We have ice storms in our area . One year it took my Apple tree down but I propped it back up. That was years ago & it still gives beyond my ability to utilize. I made 7 gallons of apple filling this year & left many apples on the tree.

Time to buy a sapling.

2. Fortunately I lost just one limb from my pear tree

And the crabapple tree looks fine.

3. Good job on a bad situation

We had one finally pull out of the ground last week that had gotten quite large. Also turned into firewood. Now, we had one of the peach trees split.
