Blog Entry 197 of 210 From the mountains to 6th Avenue
Many Evergreeners commute. It's been described as a commuter community. Accurate. So there is an etiquette to commuting. The first rule: Leave early. Even if you depart for a 9 to five job at 6:30 a.m., you will not be alone. If you like being alone on the highway, go to Montana. The second rule: Leave early If you don't get off til 5 p.m., take a book on tape, because you will be sitting in traffic near Federal and 6th, and entertainment of any kind is helpful. There are polite drivers, like me, who let others sneak in, especially in merge lanes. I try. You probably do too. The one thing I have decided that will not happen to me is that I will not be mangled in a car wreck on 6th Avenue or I-70 in either direction. What do you do to keep this promise to yourself?

Now that's a big - dead - tree

Article Contributed on: 11/14/2008 3:32:21 PM

I haven't asked my neighbors about why they chopped down this tree in their yard.

It's pretty big.

And from a short distance, it doesn't look ill.

I just can't help looking at it, because, it's what I see from my front porch.

It's been down for at least a couple weeks, they are slowly chipping and chopping it.

I know we have had to cut some trees down in our yard, a painful thing, because they had pine beetles and it isn't fair to let them stand and affect others.

Maybe that's what this is.
