In my own little world
Re: In my own little world
This is the stump which vexes me.
We had hoped to be rid of it by now but wind and rain thwarted our efforts to burn it during the short period during which we are allowed open burning. It even prevented further chain-sawing of it because wet hardwood dulls a chain within minutes.
To provide a sense of scale: the two red dots indicate points which are four feet and four inches apart.
The blue line indicates the approx. size and shape at starting. It is approx. four inches shorter than what the tree service left.
It is not easy to see but there is a white stripe of paint on the root at the righthand end of the blue line. This paint marks the limit of where we must clear to a depth of two feet because a flower bed and its border will cross there. We must remove the remainder only to a depth of six inches to accommodate sod. It must be that low because the ground all around the stump is elevated and must be leveled once the stump has been removed.
