A separate crew will come back and grind the stumps in a few days. Our backyard is looking so sunny now that I’m starting to draw mental plans for major garden expansion. It’s probably not quite as sunny as I’m picturing, though. The apple tree should get a lot more fresh air and sunshine now; saving it was a big part of why we chose to do this.
