Gnarly-branched Pine Tree Falls On Walnut Street

by

Neighbors heard a crackle, like fireworks, then a scream … nobody was hurt as a tree fell at about 11:30 a.m. Monday at the top of Walnut Street across from 33rd Street. Neighbors did most of the clean-up with some help from LAPD. The County arrived to put up a sign and drop off traffic cones. Previous complaints (not formal) to the County were made because of the proximity to Aspen School, according to neighbors. The former owner was unable to pay for removal.

Los Alamos
 
I would like to thank Vernon Kerr and his red cap ambassadors for their efforts in promoting Los Alamos tourism.
