Photo Week: Song Titles #2

2.) Torn and Frayed, The Rolling Stones
We returned from our honeymoon to find out that our lovely 100 year old white oak tree in our front yard was in the right-of-way covering a manhole. Due to sewer expansion work, the City needed access to the manhole so our tree was going to be removed. Four days later, I came home from work and our precious oak was gone. How did I feel? Torn and frayed.

The upside: The City is giving us three 12 foot trees and will re-seed where the old oak
used to be. Guess that's our lemonade.
