More sky from January 19th!
Well, for me anyway.
My next door neighbour has a huge gum tree that blocks a good 30x30 degree part of my viewable sky, including the Southern Polar region.
The tree is in his yard, but half of it is over our yard, so we get tons of leaves and branches in the yard and on our metal roof, which promotes rusting. Being on our Southern fence, it also provides no shade, so it's all bads and no goods.
But, on January 19th it's getting cut down!! It's had borers for a few years, and he's finally been advised to remove it before it falls on our roof.
Best part though, is that I get an appreciable amount more sky to observe! Yahoo!!
Cheers,
Jason.
Now, only one more huge gum and a Jacaranda over the back fence to Round-Up!
