I have this tree, I think it's an eastern red cedar. Can I prune the bottom branches to get it to grow more up and not out?

It's like 15' tall right now, living up in northern Michigan. I don't want to hurt it, my grandfather gave it to my son before he died. It's already survived one transplant. My FIL is having trouble cutting the grass around it. Any advice at all would be so appreciated.

Overcooked my smoke leg of lamb on father's day. Wasn't going to let it go to waste, so I made an awesome salad.

Leaf lettuce, cucumber, Greek dressing, toasted pita, feta cheese, sun dried ty tomatoes.

$10 brisket from the Asian market

Grabbed a small little 1.8 lb brisket at the local Asian market yesterday. It was pretty thin, but I gave it a shot. Smoked it with pecan until it was about 150°. Threw it in the slow cooker with a half jar of pepperoncinis and a packet Italian dressing mix. Cooked a few hours until fork tender, tossed on some bakery rolls with provolone. Made 4 sandwiches.

It's not much, but it's the first time I've planted a "garden" in 3 years since battling alcoholism. Don't ask about the maple tree.

I'll be sober for a year on June 9th.
