It's Gone...

I'm not sure how many times I've blogged about it here and in my other blog - Teacher's Corner - but the tree that's been causing eye sore in our back yard during fall/winter because of all the dry leaves from it is gone. The owner decided to have it cut down. I'm not sure if that's something I should be happy about or not. I know we need to plant and not cut down trees but the owner of the tree can no longer afford to maintain it as far as cleaning the fallen leaves everytime fall comes.

Anyway, I used to get really upset about the leaves especially when they would come flying to our backyard right after I raked. But now that it's gone, I'm not sure it's such a good idea. Even the husband is wondering why the owner decided to have it cut down. He thought he'd hang on to it even if it's causing eye sore not only in our backyard but around the neighborhood. Maybe they'll replace it with some other tree that don't make such a mess. I hope they do actually.
