I might just get my "wish" about meeting these tree whackers. It seems that a place I go here in my semi-rural little town has become quite popular with the cream of our limited society. It sells 45 different beers, ales, stouts and porters, many imported (and local wines). It is also a venue for acoustic musicians. I think the culprits have discovered it. I am going to ask them point blank why they destroyed the trees.
