So... my roommate Louise is fabulous! Over the Independence Day weekend she cleared out a lot of limbs and trimmed all of our trees and bushes. It looks so much better now! BUT - we always forget to bring out our trash on Friday mornings so the tree limbs were sitting on our driveway on a tarp just before our giant ice cream party. Although I do sometimes speak fondly of my semi-white trash ways... this was not the time or the place to actually go through with the potentially trashy situation. 
I called up the county and found out the address for the place where we could drop off said limbs on a Saturday morning. Before all of our events for the day (political for me, Def Leppard for her) we loaded up both of our cars with the limbs. We drive compact cars... so the first humorous part was us loading up limbs in her hatch back and in my trunk. We mixed our limbs with the scrap metal at the place because we couldn't find the brush pile the first go (don't ask), but the second time around they made us wear giant orange vests and hard hats to unload the last load. Enjoy the pictures... We never thought our Saturday would involve pretending our little cars were trucks or wearing hard hats, but the job was done and the yard looked rather presentable for the party the next day.
