before and after

well ... you read it here in the pages of the blog ... jack wanted the holly tree to go, and go it did. along with the appliation of a new coat of paint, the holly tree was felled yesterday by one "scott" of scott's trees.

so here's the before:

you can actually take pictures of the house from a head-on perspective. the mound of dirt in the foreground is all that's left of the holly tree.

jack thinks the house has lots of curb appeal now. however, he refused to pose for pictures today.

maybe tomorrow.
