Some sky fire from this morning:[ATTACH] [ATTACH] Btw/psa: Never use an old piece of pier for firewood. Nor telephone poles.
Haven’t really tested the limits yet, but it is a newish neighborhood that could use some shade trees in my opinion. You are supposed to get just...

I forgot the obligatory trunk shot, but this was a car hoard from my daughter’s classmate’s house in the neighborhood. I had been walking by the...
Phew, that last 1/3 was the roughest. Even some easy looking (straight and skinny) branches some took >10 whacks with the isocore. I am glad I...
My dad used to wrestle Ric Flair in high school, and beat him too. I guess my dad had a year and a weight class on him at the time so it wasn’t...
Worked on a little more… 2/3 thirds the way done with the elm score that fell from the sky.[ATTACH]
