Pine trees grow like weeds here. A 70-foot pine tree is likely 20 or so
years old. And, the problem is not just the hurricanes, it's the
near-hurricanes. Every one of these trees has limbs that were ripped off
and several of them have tops that were blown out over the past 20 years

or
so.


Most of these are tall and straight enough to produce lumber so the guy
who is clearing the lot is not charging anything as he will sell the

logs, which will more than cover his cost to clear.

This reminds of a relative (whose first language is not english) was
negotiating the price to get the pine trees remove from a large lot, the
contractor said $5000.00
my relative shook his head and the contractor said "well
I'll give you $6000 but no more"
My relative got smart fast and figured out he was selling the lumber not
paying to have the trees removed!
