… a tree in front of the North Idaho Museum that provided shade for passing motorists on Northwest Boulevard?”

DFO: As Phil Robertson of “Duck Dynasty” would say: “They gone.” 11 of them, cut today. And another tree-cutting mandate from the federales (FEMA) this time is met. Explains Mayor Steve Widmyer on my Facebook wall: ” We are following the plan of a professional outside engineer to met a Federal mandate. This isn’t something that we wanted to do. We are required to do this to avoid the Fort Ground from being declared a flood zone. That would be devastating to the City and the Fort Ground residents.”
