Yesterday I 'tried' to trim some low hanging limbs from my live oaks but they weren't low enough to do using a 12' step ladder, so I called a tree trimmer that someone recommended and after he came out to look, I decided to do even more. It surprised me that they came out on the same day and did the work a few hours later!! For what I had to do, told him the crew could just drop the limbs on the ground and leave them and I'd clean up the mess and he was good with that. The mess in the front yard wasn't bad but was bigger in the back.
Got most of the brush from the front on the edge of the street already and decided to fire up my 37 year old chain saw and well, it took some loving but got her going once again and cut up all the larger stuff in the front and some even bigger stuff in the back. Think I'll sleep good tonight! The back yard is going to take a couple of days to clean up....and probably more! This crew (2 guys) knew what they were doing and landed everything in one area but not piled up where it would make it hard to work with. I've cut down lots of trees over the years and wish I could still do it and it was enjoyable to see others doing it so well! And yeah, keeping some of it for the burn pit! Best 350 I've ever spent for something like this.....
