Farewell old friend

It's a sad day in our backyard. A few weeks ago Ann noticed a large gap at the base of a tall old apple tree. We called a tree guy and he told us it needed to come down. They scheduled us for eight weeks out but said they'd stop by sooner if possible.

Today turned out to be the "sooner if possible." About four guys showed up and took her down in about twenty minutes. She provided all of the wonderful things that every tree has to offer, plus a whole lot of apples!
