The Crane and Wood Chipper

On Monday morning Kanye noticed a crane out our class window.  On closer investigation we noticed it was removing a tree further down Howard Street.  A small walk later and we were watching the tree being taken down and fed into a wood chipper.  The lovely owner of the house where the tree was being taken down then shared her wonderful pikelets and jam with us! Lucky Room 3.  Here are our photo's and stories about the tree.

Kanye said there was a crane outside the window.  Then we went outside to see the crane and we could see the wood chopper.
Jan gave us pikelets.  We liked the butter and the jam on the pikelets.
