I only work with Certified Arborist.

Never mind a generator what about a water pump? If I need a small amount of gas all I do is open up a valve connected to the fuel system on the truck and pump away, opening the shrader valve and connecting a hose will allow you to fill a gas can. There’s your project Rocky, weld a new line on your fuel rail that should keep you busy.
Still waiting to hear about my place, lines are down.

Glad to hear the wind speeds and expected rains are down ... They were saying this thing is the size of Texas... Its big enough to do plenty of damage, even as a downgrade....
The downgrade should save a lot of lives and property...

5 day forcast shows it might visit Butch and myself up here. Just like last year's storm while not hurricane force it kept us busy for a while.

It always fizzles out before it gets here. We might get a 'lil rain.

There's not gonna be many trees standing after 12 hours of 100 mph winds.... Moving that slow, its gonna trash plenty.... My heart goes out....

Just saw some video of the area on the weather channel. Can those Palms be cabled or braced back upright and regenerate enough roots to support themselves in a couple years?
I don't believe in wasting the time doing it on trees here unless they are small but the palms I saw while I was there at the nurseries seemed to have a really small bundle of roots?

Hey Rocky,
I made out pretty well w/ Charley. Went from a '90 Jeep Cherokee to a '96 F350 crew cab diesel. Now I'm shootin for more equipment. If you're lookin for help in this area, give me a buzz. I did alot of work just driving around town, averaged $700. to 1700. a day.

Jacksonville update:
Windy with a little rain. The radar does not show us getting anything, but the forcast is calling for 50+mph winds, that means trees down. I agree with Rockys suggestion on storm areas. The good thing for the storm chasers is that the storm is so massive that the damage and the tree guys will be spread out over a large area and all will be soaking up lots of greenbacks.

Whol else is thinking of where to spend a bundle on supplies?
I'm trying to determine exactly what extra supplies i should bring. Water, food, tent, saws, chains, gas cans, gas, oil, ropes, slings, biners, just to mention a few of the items i'm inventorying. New truck might be on the agenda as well>>>hmm, maybe once i get there. Any need for a new 066?? hmmmm
