We're having pretty nice sunny weather these week so I have to let her go out during the day otherwise it gets ridiculously hot in the house. Everyone keep their fingers crossed please that I get my truck back today atleast I can hopefully get geared up and salvage Friday out of this week. Even with locking pins in my forestry box I unload everything to go to a shop, better that way I figure nothing goes missing for certain.

I at least take the chainsaws out when my truck is left anywhere.

Yesterday I had a client who was bound and determined to save money on me pruning his big leaf maple.

Each time I said I would clean up, he said no he would do the clean up. I said the job would go faster if I brought one of my guys to help rope, he said no, he could untie ropes just fine.

Funny thing is, I finally got to his house at 9:30A, finished pruning by 11:00A, and still charged him the predetermined 400 bucks.

now he has a monster pile of brush completely filling his entire back yard which will take him a week to cut up and stack, and then he has to stuff it gradually into his green waste can over the next month.
But hey, he 'saved' 175 dollars!
And I made good coin for a mornings work.

I got my truck back!! Only 3g on the button (3010) so all and all not to bad I suppose. A afternoon of restocking and greasing the boom and I'm good to go.

 

[vharrison]

AC is blasting again! Yeah!!

 

[lumberjack]

[Frans]

[Chisel Tooth]

[MasterBlaster]

AC is blasting again! Yeah!!

Did you fix it or buy a new one?

I took out 4 pine trees today. My truck is on the fritz still so I had a buddy's climber for the day. Worked pretty good, he is a beast. Three loads in my dump trailer. All I did was be the driver to the dump and the tractor driver to load the wood.

 

[MasterBlaster]

I topped a pecan, then trimmed a live oak.

Oops! Did I say topped?

My power just came back on after being out for an hour. Just three years after getting the entire network all but replaced, and all it takes is a half inch of rain and 20 mph winds to knock out the power again. I had gone to bed but then the power came back on and I figured I'd get back up for a bit.

I'm snacking on fresh strawberries that I bought this afternoon. YUM!

 

[OTGBOSTON]

no hangover today

Had to leave work early yesterday, it was a bad one. Sat on the couch and watched Sopranos re-runs for 8 hrs.

 

[vharrison]

Did you fix it or buy a new one?

They fixed it! It is only about 3 years old. The good part was, we have a service agreement with them, so it did not cost me a penny! (other than the service agreement fee)

 

[xtremetrees]

Today I will eat big and rest much, I have two contsuions with swelling. The top of my left foot from a noob ropeman and the middle finger of left hand from cradling a top at a fork how stupid was that ha! 3 days later still looks like the finger is bee stung. WTF I am whinning aint I! The reason my finger got squash was a stubb! MB warned me about leaving stubbs this 5 days ago! Am I stupid or what!

The salt air really reduces the life of anything metal that's outside when you're in a coastal region like that. My old man had a condo on New Smyrna Beach for several years and the A/C units typically needed replacement every 6-8 years.
