These guys are good. House is still standing! Got about a dozen pines, four big oaks and a bunch of junk coming down. They trimmed up a couple oaks we are keeping out front and keeping a few out back. We are cleaning out some neglected palms around the pool. Lots of work to be done.

Uh yeah, me too. Although I did have to get up on our verandah roof yesterday to get a bunch of snow off it. It was only a 12' drop though.

I have chainsaws, fell trees from time to time, and have even climbed the odd one. But only limby ones, and not very far - likely no higher than what our verandah is. No frickin way would I climb something like that, that high, then cut the top off it. Takes a certain kind.
