Caught Cat

This cat scampered up the driveway, then stopped exactly where I hoped she would. 
Neighbors to our north alerted us that a tree guy would be cutting back the mass of vegetation threatening their tree, our fence and the overhead wires, then the guy offered to whack off the mass of the greenery entirely on our side. I closed my eyes and said, "OK."  The result is better, for sure, but no clematis blooms this spring and after that kind of massacre, we'll have lots of dead ends to get rid of - that's not a complaint, though. See Extra. That tall, lone locust has no more lower branches so it looks pretty odd.
