I cannot wait either! Unfortunately, I must wait until next year wherever that might be. In negotiations for more equipment and cannot spare a penny right now.

I hope everyone has fun and learns a ton.

Its looking like the WI or IL area this spring, after the snow melts. Then somewhere on the West Coast for fall?

Are you or will you be looking at the southeast anytime in the future?

We are willing to bring this event anywhere that there is a host tree company, a worthwhile NON profit site to donate the work to, and some awesome folks to come join us in the trees!!
 
Okay, I'm all signed up!! Wanted to go last time, but the knee kept me away. I do things a little different than you guys, so make sure you go easy on me. Looking forward to learning a few new things!!!

Yeah, they both work so good for me that I don't want to change anything!! You don't think I'll stick out too much do you?? I could switch to my tennis shoes!! Also I will be bringing my electric chainsaw, as that is the ONLY saw I will use doing crane work..
 
Don't worry Royce I' m bringing my hemp rope, crosscut saw, and assless chaps. You won't be the only one in the spot light.

In all seriousness it should be a great seminar- any chance to be around other good arborists and learn new things is well worth the time and money! I only heard good things about the last one.
