Finding climbers. They all go to mass and CT because the pay is 2x what it is in ri. No one is gonna climb for 20 an hour.
127’
Lol, so it shrunk 10’ too.
Definitely a nice size tree crane tho..

Just double checked. 127’ of stick on top of the truck gives you 137’’ of tip height. My bad.
That’s pretty sick, no doubt. I hope he does well with it. Like I said, good kid, good family.
Edit: and let’s face it, the more the merrier. Lol… make room for one more at the arborist circle jerk!!
Nice Monday job. Finishing some trees the last guy bailed on. Was actually kinda fun for the old “Ropeman” lol.
Few more from the “Ropeman” lol.

The electric service coming into that deal is the biggest mess I've ever seen.
$20 is $20 man, seems to be the going rate everywhere ive seen, all the job listings show $18-25/hr last I saw, if I can score a job paying more than that when I turn 18 im gonna be super happy
guess im saving up for a GRCS
from what I hear its worth every penny, I heard the same about caddy pads, they were right
That was a summer camp that’s been in operation since 1900. I’m guessing that nightmare was probably grandfathered in. (That was the kitchen back there). You’d have to see that wire mess in person to appreciate all that was going on there. I wonder if camp orientation includes some kind of ehap briefing. Lol

I finally figured out ive have Lyme disease bad for the past three weeks. It’s been a tough ride but I’m finally on doxy and starting to feel better.
Crane and 90’ spider lift. What a sweet thing! I needed an easier week too!! 
Your GRCS has paid for itself many times over! Nice work. Your groundies must also be trained very well.
Bummer but glad you finally caught it. I recently got bit by my first ever deer tick. It seemed to hold on way tougher than a regular tick. I ended up going into emergency room and having them remove, was in a hard spot for me to really see on back of my leg below my but ! They gave me 4 pills that were some sort of antibiotic and they said 98% of the time if you catch it in the first 3 days I should be good. Was about a month ago so I must be good.
You've got one now, right Mike? They’re an amazing tool when used properly. Just takes time to get through the learning curve, but well worth it. If something happened to mine tomorrow, I’d have to pony up and buy a new one.
Zzzzzz….. Where’s Crane Man Vetty!!?? Lol
