    Yeah yeah but those Canadians are using those fancy folding fans to blow the smoke down at us. Alot of people are saying it. They're bad hombres. Our American smoke goes up and disappears into the sky!

    Wildfires

    Yeah every day. The more we meddle with stuff the worse it gets. Forest "management" practices seem to be focused on production timber harvesting. Fire is part of a natural cycle but it happens more often when we mess with nature.

    Wildfires

    Here in Detroit is some of the worst air quality. It's been smoky/hazy here since late afternoon yesterday and smells like a campfire. We also called off. This smoke plus the heat is just not worth pushing through.

    ftc spurs

    You can get them a lot tighter with a lot less effort than velcro, as well as releasing them much more easily. The release takes deliberate action but is physically easy. Another problem that they solved for me is that I have found that even when I get my spurs nice and tight on the ground...

    ftc spurs

    I bought the spikepod straps for my spurs and really like them for a good snug fit. A couple of the screws holding them together came apart and rather than replace the screws they just sent me the newest version of them and they're really great. I realize this isn't about the FTC spurs...

    Social media comments on your business posts

    I was going to say the same thing. It sounds like you handled it very well. If it were me, the only thing I would have done differently is directly answer the question about ISA Certification. Get ahead of that and drive the narrative like you did with the other comments they made. We post...

    No doubt the coverage is better with a Coolvest, the trade-off is you can drink from a Camelbak. If I was a roofer I would wear one.

    Glaciertek.com Coolvests

    I have a Camelbak that I fill with ice cubes and then add water to in the morning. After I've drank my two liter bottles of cold water I put the pack on and it both helps keep me cooler and I have ice water on tap. I worked 11 hours in this heat on Monday and was pretty crispy after that but...

    Love tree work. Not the tree business.

    What they will actually end up discovering is that a steady diet of Facebook causes cancer.

    Portawrap minimun wrap, add'l wrap nomenclature

    He will be missed. Matt never held back on speaking his mind and kept to his values.

    June 1, 2001-Happy Birthday, Treebuzz!

    Happy birthday Treebuzz! You have been a huge piece of the puzzle in my growth as a climber. I don't know that I would have been willing to switch careers to tree work without the Buzz and all the confidence that comes with access to great information and minds.
