    Went out to Arborwear today for some seminars and brats. They was cookin a pig to but I didnt have time to stay long enough for that . But the brats were darn good . I mostly wanted to check out the seminar on High Angle Rescue. It was done by Ed Carpenter. It was pretty good. Clothes were all on sale to. I bought my guys double thick full zips at 65 each..not bad. I got myself a sweat shirt and some pants. I would go out there again.
    115. My only guarantee is that you will still go away confused,
    but at a much higher level.

    First sale I've missed in half dozen years. I really wanted to hit the seminars but no time. Hope they had a good turn out because they're a nice bunch over there.

    I climbed a 40' pin oak today and removed it. It took about 2.5 hours from when I left my house to I got home. Made $400. Kinda felt bad for chargeing him $400 for being onsite for about a 1.5 hours with two guys and a chipper. Idk, I may cut him a good deal on the stump removal.

    High Angle Rescue

    If there is anyone interested in taking a high angle rescue class, you can normally get them threw your local fire acadamy. I have been in the fire service since '98 and I have taken high angle rescue 1,2,3,4. I have learned some really great things in those classes, that I have applied to my tree service rope work.

    Got a call today from a neighbor of a job I just finished it was for a medium sized silver maple. She told me to schedule it in then pointed to huge cottonwood and jokenly said how bout that one. We looked at it and gave her a price and she said do it! A limb fell from it last year and hit her daughters dog and killed it. I put a big number on it!DSCF0034[1].jpgDSCF0036[1].jpg

    Trimmed up 14 trees and took down one Aspen. Cleaned it all up and ground the stump. Casual type day as I like to call them, lol.

    Got to use my new Beeline stumper and was amped big time how it ate that 14" stump in a couple of minutes. I hauled it in the chip box on the way to the job and went home in the back of my pickup, light and quick as could be to load/unload (with two 6' aluminum ramps) and move around the job site. Couldn't be happier with that little niche investment.

    The real deal was the Agco ST41A compact tractor I used, demoing it and going to buy it tomorrow if they take my offer. Ever since using my buddies little 30hp last weekend to take out 9 Spruce at his Dad's house I am hooked. The capability, versatility and lawn friendliness of this machine (41hp turbo) is really blowing me away.

    I was at a crossroads on what to get, rubber tracks or turf tires for my skid, mini skid, track machine, mini loader, anything that would be the end all do all machine. Finally, I realized that a tractor would be the perfect piece of equipment to compliment my skidsteer. Now I can do backhoe work with my skid and backfill/load dirt with the tractor. Can haul wagons/trailers too and run any 3pt./PTO attachments.

    I have some big wood jobs to do this week over a nice asphalt drive and lawn so the tractor will be the ticket. Gonna put a winch on the back too MDS, believe it.

    I went up there today after work with some buddies. Scored a double thick hoody for $30 and some estimator pants.

    The place was jamming when I was there. Ran into a few people I knew too. Selection was a lot better than the spring sale.

    Geez Phil, I thought you would have been there before they opened.

    I wonder if Mike Foster made it up there?

    Davey was well represented. Didn't see any other large tree co's. Usually always see a gang of guys from Imperial.

    Watched a Knuckleboom in action today. Very fast and efficient. I can see why a lot of guys are moving towards those over cranes. Height capacity is the only real downfall that I could see watching it.
