Ice Storm

Late yesterday afternoon a yellow tractor drove up the street and cleared the way. It did so by moving all the debris to the side onto the boulevard and sidewalk.  

I had expected to be trapped for a day or so; waiting until a crew arrived with chainsaws, wood shredders, and large dump trucks.  Nothing like that. A lone tractor with a bucket on the front, manipulated like a hand, lifting, pushing, crushing and pulling.  

I expect the crew to come later; but now there is no rush.

Above is a shot earlier in the day; by day’s end most of the major limbs were down.

A nice touch of winter, just for Christmas 😉
