He shouldn’t be happy we had high winds that brought down part of our choke cherry tree two nights ago.

He shouldn’t be happy.

But you know he was.

Because as soon as the sun came up?

He was out there.

Trimming weight.

Anxious for the fun to begin.

Ready!
You know he’s been itching to cut something down.

So he was one happy camper.

It had to be done, but when he started eyeing the rest of the tree?
I threw myself in front of it to save the poor thing from total annihilation.
