    Up on the rooftop this tree fell.
    They called buZZsaw to make it well.
    I showed up to cut the tree.
    Turns out its a dead mulberry!
    Bucked up with the 194.
    Getting paid for a wood score!
    HAPPY HOLIDAYS HOARDERS! :santa:

    Get a text from a regular customer this morning. Smaller dead tree landed on their one car garage with his 1998 corvette inside. Good wind and rain here yesterday. Postponed job for today so i could help them out. I get there and notice all the limbs stayed attached. Broke one and yellow inside...mulberry. RARE tree around here. The number ive seen i can count on two hands. First time ive ever cut one. I scored some a few times from the dump before but thats it. Not much but i thought it would be a woodless paying job.

    Got creative with some lumber to prop it up when i bucked it down off the roof. Retired homeowner helped me a little.
    No damage other than dented drip edge and a scuffed shingle (i was going ask Horkn what he would suggest to fix it?) ;) IMG_3548.JPG
    Nice pile of limbs he saved for his firepit.
