While it initially appeared they were pruning branches, it became clear the workers were tasked with removing the entire tree.

Heartbreaking!
ReplyDeleteCarlina just can’t help herself
ReplyDeleteLol to the above comment. She probably just ripped it out herself.
ReplyDeleteWhy??
ReplyDeleteI'm with all of the above: Heartbreaking, Carlina (so many trees Carlina!), and why??
Deleteno, why was the tree taken down. I doubt Carlina ordered this...Parks Dept does it
ReplyDeleteNot that I care for Carlina but really? You actually think she had anything to do with cutting down this tree?
ReplyDeleteMy guess is Dutch Elm disease? They wouldn’t take it down unless it was dying or diseased…
ReplyDeleteOur (thankfully outgoing city) council person has not met a tree she didn't want to rip out.
