    Good gracious, it was unbelievably HOT AND HUMID yesterday here in PA! We had a sizeable job to get done so we started at 7am to try and beat the main heat. A total of 9 trees all around 45-60 foot tall. Got them all down, bucked and cleaned up by 11am!

    No pics, we were "pedal to the metal" all morning......going to go and haul out the spruce billets this afternoon, picked up two more jobs already because of this one! Crazy busy!!!!

    Yeah it was in the 90s here in Va yesterday too, and pretty humid. Good work, and smart decision to get that done in the morning!

    No doubt that is the heat and humidity that went through here. No way would I be cutting in that crap. My hat is off to you Scotty, but it is cooler without the hat right now.
