Hah! I opened myself up to that didn't I?

re the silver maple, a picture of the whole tree showing the lean would also be nice. I think they are easy species to prune well, but I agree that often they are not.

8" of rot in a 48" tree is not much. Also I'm wondering where the guess of age 80-105 years old comes from...most of these guesses that I hear are quite high.
