Charles - I liked the content and it's brevity too. I'm not a fan of 8 minute videos.

Suzanne ~ in the older neighborhoods of Denver, we also have to watch for the larger tree roots wrapping around the sewer lines. Thanks for the informative video.

Suzanne, you've touched on a subject that has caused me lots of grief in the past.  I love trees, but know enough not to plant them too near the house, power lines, sewer lines, septic systems, fences, walks, driveways, etc.  My grief comes from various family members wanting to do the opposite.

Dawn - We have the same problem in the older sections of Southeastern PA.

Nick - You've touched on a sore subject between my cement-loving-let's-pave-everywhere-next door neighbor and me a tree hugger. In all my years of real estate, trees and dogs seem to bring neighbors to battles.

Suzanne, trees, dogs and short fences :)) It's really kind of funny that you mention that because trees, and dogs is a major issue with a neighbor in Chicago and that's probably fodder for a post.
