Well the cops in that rather upscale neighborhood were nervous about us, because we took out a rather major telephone pole only two days before, when I dropped the first tree.
We had cones blocking the sidewalk, and blocked the street in the working areas with our trucks and trailer. Plus two other men besides myself as crew.
For the first drop we had two police cars, two fire engines, and later six electric company trucks to do crowd control for the neighborhood who turned out to see us finish the job after their power was restored.
Now I was going to save the whole true retelling of the events of that day for a separate thread, but since you asked ...
