A Clearer View

While we were enjoying the noise of the Thunderboat races from our balcony, a mini cherry-picker parked by our next door neighbor's house. Four men came out and started surveying the palm trees. You see, these palm trees sort of "block" our view of the bay. It is not really bad. We actually kind of like the palm trees, except the gardener does not do a good job of trimming the dead branches and leaves. And it just makes you want to go over there and start trimming the trees yourself. But we like our neighbor and we even offered to have their trees trimmed (so we can enjoy a better view)at our expense.

Well today, she had these men trim ALL the palm trees, even the ones at the back of her house (which was blocking my view from the dining room). Wow! It looked so bright I feel like installing drapes on my windows!!! Seriously, it looked great.

Here is the guy on the cherry-picker, trimming the second palm tree. And now we have a clearer view from our balcony bar.



This is the view from the sitting room (dining room). In the second picture, the tree in foreground is our tree which obviously needs to be trimmed now...!! (hint, hint)
