    Bringing on a plant health care specialist / consulting arborist part-time / as needed

    You make good points. Defs be careful about who you refer to. I mostly farm out removals where folks are looking for the lowest bidder. I'm not that guy. I wouldn't blindly send folks to other companies. Do you mean the workers in your area are all "buddy buddy"? Are they contractors or owners...

    Don't sleep on the quickie too. Not a fan of cinched biner anchors. Too many other options and old habits for hard.

    Bringing on a plant health care specialist / consulting arborist part-time / as needed

    Or ice/snow. I'd wonder if they could help with traction too.

    Light ground protection

    Ditto. Learning curve with mats. Doesn't prevent damage if the conditions are wrong.

    Sudden oak death found in Minnesota—-first gindt

    I hope it doesn't gain a foothold. I find no pleasure in removing big oaks.

    Home birthing hippies

    We're having another one any day now. At home this time too. Officially shut down operations today through the holidays to accommodate. Eager anticipation.

    RAIN PANTS

    I dig storm defenders. I wear the bibs and the coat. Don't like to be wet and cold.

    Yanmar earns its keep!

    Glad it's working out well. The tractor is a beast for sure. Ours still gets a good bit of use.

    I don't understand what motivates people to do this sort of thing. Sorry Tom. That's not cool.

    mini grapples.

    I do the same with my tractor grapple, but it has a huge opening (bigger than the root grapple I tried). I'm a wizard with the log grapple on that machine. I found it easier. But different strokes, lol.
