    Well the tree is finally down! they have been cutting since monday. They still have to come back thursday to pick up the last of debris. I took about 360 photos of this operation.

    The trunk is 4 feet in diameter at three feet off the ground, here's a pic of it hitting the ground.

    Here's pic of the trunk after it landed. You look close, you can see the split working down it. Also that bottm part is buried a about a foot and a half into the ground.

    HOORAY!! My car is out of the shop. Just picked it up.

    90hrs of body labor, 30 hrs of paint labor, 3 hrs of mechanical labor and $11400.00 and it's done.

    They did a good job, just a couple of nit picky things (small spots needing to be buffed out a little more.) But not a bad job, got done retty fast too.
