Just think of how many years it has taken for these trees to grow.......

And it took mere minutes to destroy one of God's most beautiful creations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, all I can say is what goes around comes around........Perhaps lightening will strike down this street scape project.....

Damned idiots!!!!!
