Nice PPE and 40' lift. I'd have all those flopped over before 10

I thought you'd enjoy these pics. As of Wednesday evening, they'd just felled the last tree on the fence line, with a big Pecan by the home that is to come down next, and a large Elm behind the home.
Also, they don't have a wood chipper, so they're burning the limbs in his yard. Ouch! They're keeping the logs, and they won't remove any of them until they're finished. Oh; well.

Dont cry, just do it
That's got to be hairy working off a basket on the forks of a pedi boom. Looks like easy murph trees

I went by there today. They had taken down the big elm, and were cutting it up and piling it to burn right there. Yikes.
Oh; and they've already put back his chain link fence. At least that part looked okay, but that poor yard is a sight.
Next is the big Pecan between his house and his neighbor. They'll have to take down the power line to my friend's house to get the Boom in there. That part looks very spooky, too many high (low) lines to watch, and those limbs overhanging the houses.

murph likes making manicured lawn look like a mine testing field

I must admit being a bit jealous....nobody lets me just burn limbs next to their house around here! I actually have to chip it and haul away.
Looks like plenty of room to drop those pines, just wasting time with the material handler.
Must be a different world in OK, strange job for sure..........

Howdy old_soul: I couldn't believe it either. The morning I was there, I just knew the fire dept. would show up, but they continued burning every day. Finally got the last Pecan from between those houses w/o damaging anything.

Glad to hear it went well, just saying
It would make me a nervous wreck leaving a brush fire that close to someone's house.

Burning brush piles out here on the ranch one learns just how treacherous things can get if the wind picks up or shifts. Those guys are in for a rude awakening one of these days.

I talked to him the other day, and he said they finally finished up, and have left. Said something about getting his son to come over and grind the stumps down. He may reach that $9,000 mark yet.
