Good Night, Sweet (Sour) Cherry


By now, you're probably thinking, "How many posts could he possibly write about that stupid cherry tree?" Well, not too many more, sadly. Early this morning, NYSEG came by to finish the job they started last Thursday. Only a stump remains where once a majestic (okay, it was actually kind of sickly) cherry once stood. Luckily, I was around to stop them from feeding all those lovely cherries to the wood chipper. So, now, the whole picking-pitting-cooking process can begin all over again (yay!). Cherries, anyone?


This picture shows the break in the tree before it was cut down:

Poor tree. I like that you're not wasting its last offering of fruit.

Perhaps you meant "Swing low, sweet cherry"? (What a riot!)
