Neighbor hired me to remove a large sycamore. Didn't use a lift - I climbed it and dropped branches. All went well - mostly. I managed to double the number of my favorite climbing rope. :angry::angry:
Thank God for two tie-in points.

Nothing quite like being in the top of a tree. Love these views!

Free wood to one and all. Piles of small stuff are already gone.

Yes, I broke the cardinal rule again - I let someone use my chainsaws!!

The 'he-man' is my older brother, who is a hurricane refugee once again. He was here last September fleeing the hurricane then. He really enjoyed the day's work. The other two are his daughters' boyfriends, who also fled - or maybe just wanted to be with my nieces.

Anyway, the guy in the red managed to hit something while driving my truck - both side doors were damaged. I was very relieved they didn't damage my saws!!
