Tree Trim or a Butchering?

I've been hearing noise all day and discovered that some tree trimmers are working down our street trimming back the trees that are under the electric wires. I'm wondering if they are going to butcher them like they did the last time? They cut out the middle of the tree way down to the trunk and left the outside uncut. The poor trees looked horrible, all butchered up and they still do, several years later. They would look so much better if they would just cut them back evenly! Sam usually does his own and his are the only ones on the street that have looked good, but he hasn't trimmed them in a while and they got too tall and so his are getting cut right now. Poor trees! Well, they didn't cut out the center like last time, but they didn't trim them so they look good either. They cut them kind of flat on top and left the sticking out parts there.

I got a call from the company that is making the fascia trim for us. She said that they'd been sent the wrong color for part of our order and had to reorder so it might not be finished for us to pick it up on Wednesday. Umm, it was supposedly finished last Wednesday and they said the only reason it wasn't delivered was the other order they were delivering got delayed and when John talked to them on Thursday, they said they could deliver it on Friday, but we were going to be gone so arraigned for this week. So what's up? It should have been cut last week and they would have known about that then. Did they use ours on another job and run short??
