Son and I have been cutting branches off the trees in our front yard. They're actually to the size where they should be cut down completely but that costs a bit and cash is short after the big move. A pruning saw was $20 and I got a $95 stepladder too.
The front yard has really opened up now and cutting off the branches has accomplished two things. The first is that you can actually see that we have a two-story Colonial. The second is that sunlight actually reaches the ground so I'm hoping we can do grass next year instead of the moss that dominates now.
