And my town doesn't pick them up. So, after my wife bugged me to finally move them from the backyard I decided to dump them tonight. So, I roped my father-in-law into helping me get rid of them in a nice forest near my home. I put one tree in the back, hanging out the window and one tree on the roof and then started out down my street to make a left turn and then another into the park. Unfortunately, there was a police officer coming down the street. No sh&t, just as we were getting ready to make the turn. My father-in-law makes a turn going in the other direction hoping he didn't notice and he pulled us over one friggin block from my damn house.
COP: Ummm, where are you going with those trees
ME: I'm trying to dump them
COP: Oh, I thought you were cutting them down from people's homes.
ME: Nope, my wife has been giving me sh^t so I thought it would be a good time to get rid of them.
COP: <laughing> I dumped mine by a river. Why don't you take them to the DPW, but you didn't hear that from me,
ME: Thanks
As we drove off, my father-in-law thought about how we got busted and how we were going to explain this to my mother-in-law. Anyway, we took the cops advice and dumped it where he told us!!! Happy Easter by way of Christmas.

Yes - I still can't believe the dumb luck we had - just as we were pulling out of our street.
