Power is fine around me, but trees down everywhere you look.

We are trying to save the pecan tree!

My FIL, Theo and I have trimmed the damage to the lower 20 feet of the tree. We will need to hire someone to get the upper 20 ft.

The tree is in the back ground with most of the lower branches cut away. Theo is helping me clean up!

Theo is stamping down the pecan brush so we can get it all into the trailer.

After this pic was taken we doubled the amount of brush in the trailer.

The bigger wood I got rid of via craigslist. Set up an add saying I had cut hardwood at the curb, free, come and get it. Don't call, don't write, just pick it up. An hour later some dude was there with a flashlight and pickup. Nice!

There is still a LOT that needs to come out of this tree, but I can't get the money out of the Wifenbanker to get the work done. Still, I think we will be able to save it. I hope so, I really like this tree.

Wow Theo is growing up fast! I really enjoy pecans in the fall. Did your tree produce very much before it was injured? I've never really thought about them being this far north. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

I have only ever seen 1 pecan fall from this tree. I did not even know what kind of tree it was for years, even though I had some pecan trees growing up in Texas - but they fruited at ton, and this one never does.

I totally forgot to post this on the 5th of November. I go outside on a Southern Oregon morning in early November (saturday) and this was what we had.
