Bring Out the Heavy Machinery

Tree removal is occurring in the old neighborhood. When I was growing up, pruning and chopping were pretty much done manually; for tough jobs one used powered hand equipment.

Now wood chippers seem to be commonplace in suburban areas.

Less than a block away, outside the Ala Wai Rec Center at McCully and Kapiolani, another crew was running a chipper.

Perhaps the City is clearing away potential hazards in anticipation of the arrival of Hurricane Erick and Tropical Storm Flossie.

On the other hand any excuse to bring out the heavy machinery is ok in my book.
