    What has everyone used to pull small brush/trees?

    Better chech with the state EPD. In Georgia you have to leave a 25 foot undisturbed buffer on State waters. You can't remove any vegetation.

    Today....

    I always hate to see such magnificent trees go away, especially for the wrong reasons. Don't know what the reason is for this one to go away, just saying. The biggest reason around here is "I can't get my grass to grow."

    Another crane down

    We had one go over last week too. Excuse was soft ground. Crane karate chopped bucket truck ejecting the operator. Shattered leg, 3 ribs, pun turned lung and head injuries. Co is very thin on insurance.

    ISA TRAQ & CEU changes

    Regarding the muni/UF credentials, it is a bit confusing but as I read it you need 30 ceu's to re-up in addition to the 30 minimum for CA. Don't hold me to that though. As ever, the "New ISA" communication with members is non existent.

    Isa website so bad it’s embarrassing

    I was at the Southern Chapter meeting this past week and Caitlin Pollihan was there touting the updates to the website. Someone who should look at it isn't. It frustrates the Crap out of me.

    Samson Tango Ivy splice type?

    You will never splice 16 strand again. Use a wire fid for the final bury of the core and taper the core a bit, just at the end after you put it into the fid, but before you pull it into the cover and it will slip right through.

    Ban bamboo.

    If my memory serves me correctly, (And I'm getting to the age where it can play nasty tricks on me), the Callery Pear and its other brethren were developed in Ohio nurseries. I find that somewhat ironic.

    F450 surplus auction ambulance as equipment truck and tow vehicle???

    One of the local hacks has an old ambulance that he uses for a gear hauler. Across the top of the box in front he has in backward lettering "Treemergency" so it can be read in your rearview mirror. Also the name of his business is "Shade Killers" I just shake my head.
