Holes everywhere!

So, many of you might not remember, but we had a HUGE palm tree in our front yard. It was probably 40 feet tall, and we called it "our high-rise, low-rent bird condo." Well, if you look it the post here we had it removed and that left a large stump. We had kind of planned to have the stump be a little table, but since it oozed sap and left the top sticky, that didn't work. We have a friend who runs a hardware store here in town and they have an excavator. So, he came to rip the stump out for us, and remove our other living palm tree (which we also hate) to sell. So we have some large holes because they weren't able to remove the stump because it is literally inches away from our water main. He has some other ideas to remove it, so we will see if it ever gets removed or not. Here are the pictures from our evening last Saturday. The trench in the next photo is our water main. The kids have enjoyed playing on the dirt mounds! The other palm tree coming down.
