But with each change of neighbor they take them down. I have had 2 neighbors attempt to "help me" by send people over to cut my tree down while I was at work but for some reason came home. I basically told them if they tried I would kill them slowly and painfully. Each new neighbor over the years has encroached on my property and taken down a tree that was close to the border claiming it was on their property or they were doing me a favor. Most people are assholes. Sorry but it is true. They don't want to rake so they cut down trees and then complain about their air-conditioned bill. Educated professional assistance holes.
Sorry summer is coming in have to deal with them again.

A huge live oak tree shadow crossed over me and I looked up at its branches and said, "Hello you gorgeous tree!". Little did I know, a group of people were sitting on the other side of the tree and started laughing at me. I was embarrassed at first but then realized that I was always loving on live things and it was ok. #Bernie2016 #FeelTheBern #releasethetranscripts #wherearethetranscripts
