Too much time on my hands ......

That's what the government on Ballard, WA have - someone cut down an exceptional tree:

Now, the city's Planning Department is after the homeowner for removing 80 years of history because it was protected under the "exceptional tree ordinance.

It was a monkey puzzle tree? Never heard of 'em.

One of these days, the citizenry will finally get tired of these busy-bodies and take matters into their own hands.

Tar, feathers ...... some assembly required.
