It was only a matter of time and the time came quickly.

It was just a week ago that the Feds finished their tree trimming renovation project in Sutro Heights Park at the northwest corner of San Francisco by the Pacific Ocean.

The Feds touted the fact that the workers would be clearing an area so that visitors would have a more unimpeded view of the Pacific Ocean.

3 VIEWSHED – Selectively prune and/or remove trees to restore or maintain historic views of Ocean Beach

THE WORKERS CERTAINLY DID JUST THAT…….

Ask one of the local residents what she thinks about the unimpeded view of the Pacific
