Been raining all morning here. Hopefully it will dry out enough by Monday to do my big tree by the power lines. Got one more big gum to do for another client as well but again, can't do any ground damage there either. Just have to wait and let it dry up a little.

Great get some pics, time for ole rope to get some more now be back this evening

The stump grinder fellow is still grinding on those maples I cut down, I left about a 5 foot stump (few) and they were wide. He isn't happy.

Stumps are hard to grind under snow too.....

Today's golf course and going back for a tree that I need my big saw on. We ground several stumps and cut these two then went to a smaller job and finished the day grinding a stump and loading chunks another service left what used to be their customer and is now mine lol.
They left such a mess that I asked the lady if she done the trees lol, she told me no that the contractor left the mess and did not finish what they said they would do. I am going back to clean their mess next week. They are nice customers too the kind ole ropey likes lol. I did not have the cam then but got the golf course pics from this am!

I believe this is an ash lightning struck!

Glad to see the work is picking up for you.
Has got a little better here as well.


Are you gonna put some boxes underneath the bed of that ole ford?

In the pines, in the pines where the sun never shines and you shiver when the cold wind blows. LOL, lots of Pines. It seemed like that was all I ever climbed when I lived back East. Hardly ever climb one now. I do have to look at 27 Cedars sometime this week. A lot more Cedar here than Pine.

Nice setup you got there Rope, what's that knot your tying?

Glad to hear your busy bud. It's picking up around here.. Even if the work is still going for dirt cheap.
