Spent much of the day behind a chainsaw.... Fortunately not on my property. Limbs and full trees down all over town, with two poles as well. Heard it is much worse in southern Conn. MIL is still without power, so better half drove down this evening. But not before leaving a full bowl of candy as I will be solo tomorrow night...

Over the years I have been at odds with my neighbor, but only over his trees, which overhang my property and roof. I have spent good money trimming them back and have removed two choke cherries on my dime. One tree in particular is very brittle and loses smaller branches in all seasons. He has refused to participate with his check book. Well, three weeks ago a shrinkwrapped 18' CC I did not know he owned was parked directly under said tree...... This morning there was a six foot limb the diameter of my fist plunged through the shrinkwrap. Hoping he will be more receptive on my next phone call....
