One of my favorite jobs

The weeping willow in bad need of a haircut.
The rule of thumb is to only prune a third of your growth a year. I have a hard time with that rule.
This is a happier tree. The original goal was a tree that grandchildren could have forts under. We will continue to work towards that goal. We are hoping in will grow up this spring instead of out.

Mom, come prune our trees sometime, as long as you don't kill them.
