Look like Kiwi Klimbers...I believe they just did and may still be doing a go fund me. Great spurs from what I have heard

That class was the beginning of my training in this crazy career. It was taught by a young tall guy from Jersey. He was just a kid then and so was I. Many moons ago.

How does that Tachyon feel in the Akimbo? Are you using KM in the zig zag?
I didn't take any pictures today, but I showed up to prune a 22-foot-tall ligustrom, discovered that I could not complete the pruning specification (reduce height by half the 10-foot-tall crown), and informed my client that I would reschedule after I bought a long reach lopper. Chainsaw with new pico chain was mangling the small stuff and I could not reach into the middle with anything...
Then banking...
Then I drove out in the county to dump my 16 yard can of oak debris removed from the same site as my narrowest-ever lz, pictured below from last week:
That tree had three leaders, so I could span rig it. Overall, it's been a 3-day job - an 8 medium- and small-sized oak removal job with two single-branch reduction prunings requested by the unresponsive homeowner.
Then I picked up my son from 12:45pm early release. We watered ten 7-gallon spruce pines, two 7-gallon Virginia pines (no idea what these are but the grower threw them in for free because they had lean...), and a half-dozen 3-gallon upland tupelos and native persimmons. Then we watered our personal plants - blueberries, loquats, swamp chestnut oak red oak, and Nikita's Gift persimmon. Then we hooked the trickle charger to my dump rolloff trailer, caught up on the international chess championship, ate lunch/snack, went for a training jog, etc.

Had some extra time to play today and let the groundie (aka friend who came to hang out) go back to basics on a beautiful majestic oak. First time for him in a tree for him...definitely not his last.

Today consisted of rain, 30mph wind gusts, and dropping dead crispy cottonwood trees.
Still nicer than being stuck in an office.
last image is my throwline cube turning into a kite in a wind gust.
