Good luck recovering from that!

Cut down my first tree of the year on Wed, was in a Tee shirt ... Then a T Storm came in from out of no where and stopped the firewood process, and later that night there was ice on my back deck when I let the dogs out and it got very windy!!!

Tree was a medium size dead Ash, but still very solid. Owner was worried about it falling the wrong way (it was near his garage). He seemed very surprised I was able to drop it right between his pool and his garden.

Thanks Amigo. No have always had a g9od solid back. Chiropracter said hips are out of alignment. Left leg shorter pushing the load on my left side backuscles and vertabres. Looks like just years of accumilation causing all the misalignment. Then cramping pain and aggravating the nerve. Im doing better and walking now. 4th chiropracter visit next tuesday.

That’s a beauty. I have an unfulfilled dream ( so far anyway) to get to that side of the country & check out the beautiful scenery. Someday hopefully!
So glad to hear your feeling better. Sore backs ain’t no fun.

Last saturday. Removed a couple oaks, friends in the 2017 fire zone. Porter creek road. Insurance threatning to drop them due to trees over house.

Hope your back is improving somewhat as the days pass Norm. I know sometimes it a long & bumpy road to see any relief/progress. Nice work on that tree sir!

Took down these two the other day. Felled the birch out and my buddy climbed down the ash which had half the crown over the roof so a fair bit came off on the rope, not to mention a smallish drop zone with the fence. A lot more to the ash than it looked when i bid the job but the chipper was well positioned and we got her done.
