The privacy hedge had grown a little out of control. It needed to be reduced by about three feet sop that the neighbors offie view of the intercostal was not impeded by the hedge.  We reduced the overall height, shaped the entirety of the hedge, and cleaned up all the trimmings (paying particular attention to keeping to pool clean).  It was a great day by the water. We had the privilege of being able to see a small pod of dolphins who were fishing by forcing their prey into the shallows near the sea wall. It was an awesome sight to see.
