60K..... I have 2 of them. First one is here. Trunk is approx 2' in diameter. I'm guessing the tree is 55 to 60' high.

Second one is a little smaller but not much. Wonder how I'd go selling them? I figure Raven is joshing me on the 60K

But it would be interesting to see what I someone would pay.

The house is looking great Mac
I'll take those black walnut trees off your hands for free
They aren't as old and large as some I've seen, but it might yield some workable lumber.

Thanks for the compliments everyone. It's been a lot of work but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. All I have left to do is the small part of the back and 2 sides of the garage.

The main thing I hate about the trees is when the walnuts start falling. They have really beat the heck out of my lawnmower.

I know the walnut trees aren't worth much. I did have 2 tree cutters say they would take them down for free a coupple of years back. Needless to say I said no thanks.

Here is what it looks like now from the street. As can be seen the mimosa overpowers the house.

I got rid of the large garden and planted grass. The raised bed garden in the picture is almost more than my grandfather can handle.

Now to do something about the close to 50 rose bushes.....
