My yard looks naked

Istiqlál (Independence), 3 ‘Alá (Loftiness), 167 BE – Friday, March 4, 2011 about 5:45 PM Pacific Time

I had another pine tree removed last month. My yard looks naked without it. I still have one dying pine and an ill looking olive tree left, but my yard still looks naked without the third tree. I have a pile of firewood at the side of my house, which I will never use; at least I do not plan to use it.

I have never started a fire in a fireplace. I do not intend to start a fire in this fireplace. I would have to have someone come in, check it out and clean the chimney. I would have to find a chimney sweep. Are there chimney sweeps in the world today?

I will have to find someone to haul the wood away because I do not want it there when July 4 arrives. I do not want anything even remotely flammable near the house on the night of July 4 because the people in this neighborhood have a tendency to set off illegal fireworks, all though perhaps I am a bit paranoid when it comes to this subject.
