If anyone wants to see my dad talk about gardening, the Japanese garden he ran for like 25 30 years and the 300 different maples in the garden, here you go

That was pretty cool, Scott. Your dad certainly has a passion for the place. I have not been there, but it will be on my list next trip out that way.

It's a great place, spent a lot of time there over basically my whole life until he retired. Here's his personal garden and sort of mixed media art project, including an old sign from the garden he worked at: http://www.thedangergarden.com/2022/08/the-garden-of-don-brooks-and-chris.html

Do I detect a hesitation cut on that last one?
Perfect as always.

Naw. Just a crazy back leaner on ground too steep to stand on. There was nowhere to escape so I set a fat hinge, got the fuck out, and let some horse power finish the job. On a side note, we had over 650 ft of tagline out to pull this thing over.

Neighbor called this morning asking if I could come by and clear a couple of madrones that had fallen last night, blocking their road. Lucky for me one had 2 beautiful burls on it.

Ooooooh good one. I agree.

This fella needs a new brain so he heads on down to his local brain store. While he's looking around he notices an arborist's brain sitting in a dusty jar in the corner. Thinking he could probably afford that one he inquires with the owner concerning the price. When the owner comes back with $3,000,000, he angrily responds "$3,000,000 for a fucking arborist's brain". The owner calmly tells him that the arborist's brain is like new, and has never been used......
