I love trees, but my neighbour's Eucalyptus was a welcome removal.   
They grow huge and this thing would have dwarfed her garden and shaded  
our house for most of the day.

Nice photo, Moose.  I do admire the types who can use chainsaws up a  
tree like that.  I am at near maximum capacity with my (quite small)  
Husqvarna cutting wood on a saw horse.
