Timberrrrrrrr !!!

Missed Opportunity --- I'm sure SOMEBODY must
have seen this guy nesting along the Service Road ?
The No-Gas crowd saved the best for last.  The mind-numbing broadcast caused me to nod off more than a few times, but I have a distinct memory that one of the last speakers had a lovely English accent and spoke of the Town shredding Baby Birds in a wood chipper.

Nonetheless, the Selectmen showed spine and made cogent comments and well-reasoned explanations for their votes to allow the tree removal.  Justin the Tree Warden did a good job explaining the situation despite the fact he probably feared for his life.  The Crossmans even appeared very reasonable and professional -- despite their long involvement with this issue.  

On the other hand, more than a few of their neighbors thought they had been invited to a barroom brawl!
