What a pain in the Ash.
Our beautiful mature ash tree has been savagely attacked by emerald ash borer beetles. It didn’t take long once we noticed them for the tree to quickly start dying. We cut down the tree to burn it up hopefully stopping the beetles from spreading. So yesterday even though the leave on the tree’s branches were green they still brunt in the fire as fast as I could throw them in. By 4 that evening almost the whole tree was brunt.
During the night, I kept smelling fire. I would check out the window to see if somehow the fire had rekindled. I even walked out there in my pajamas once to check. Around midnight you could hear one fire truck after another driving past. Bedford Hills Golf Club clubhouse was burning down and the winds just happen to be from the right direction.
