GO CLIMB A TREE! - The Tree Thread

User, that Maple in your front yard is effin' awesome!

Yeah, it's a great shade tree in the summer and it used to hold baby swings for my kids when they were little. It's by far the largest tree on our block.

Unfortunately once or twice a year its roots invade our sewer line (which necessitates my calling a plumber to snake it at around $300 a pop--more if they have to stick a camera down there to find the block). We have a back up thing in the front yard and when that starts overflowing, I know it's time. Still, I'll probably replace the sewer line before I get rid of the damn tree.
