My wife and I both love trees. Our yard has many trees on both sides of our lot. There are also many small trees growing. When I went to a town meeting, I heard lots of people complain about the tall trees that would be cut down when Highway 61 is worked on in Grand Marais.
They were beautiful trees, but I don’t miss them. After driving past the area in the evening, I was really surprised to be able to clearly see all the businesses and people walking. Without the trees, the area looks like part of downtown.
I hope when the highway work is done that they don’t put any large obstacles that block the view. It is really nice to be able to see pedestrians that are trying to cross the street in all the area.
