Day 823: Tree lovers

All over town, beautiful old trees are being cut down.  Maybe they are interfering with the power lines or they are endangering a house, but I still hate to see them destroyed.  That's why it was so incredibly hard to have our towering sycamore removed.  Now, it seems that it was for nothing.  We rationalized the loss of the tree by thinking about all the trees we would save by going with solar power.

That crazy project manager called today and dug herself into a deeper hole.  I have been questioning whether their errors related to the roof were due to incompetence or a deliberate deception.  Neither is a good option.  Steve believed that several people screwed up and did not do their jobs properly, but I thought it was more than that.  Today my suspicions were validated.  She said that when this happens, they close down the project until the homeowner can replace the roof.

So it has happened before to others and they trapped those folks into an expensive roof repair also.  In addition, I closed down the worksite.  She wasn't even in town.  She blamed the electrical errors on the village of Fredonia!  But she was the one who gave the wrong plan to the electricians.

It's almost like a stained glass window! 

No more. We're done.  It will cost us, but it will be less than other damage they might do in the future.
