She's a nurse and sees a lot of chainsaw and ladder accidents but hubby wont listen.
He did a few limbs yesterday but today he's having a full go today. Yeah so at 8.00am this morning we hear a huge crash and he was up the tree with his son pulling on a rope trying to pull the limb sideways to miss the shed but CRASH!
Then they've been panel beating that for the last 10 minutes. It's gonna be an interesting day but I cant make it too obvious that I'm watching.
It's straight out of our window, cant miss it but the windows tinted so I gotta go outside for good shots. I got the video ready. 
Here's some pics.
By the way, $300 is cheap, no-one else doing it for that especially that size and the barrel is about 3' DBH |
What kind of tree was that?
When ever my neighbors hire some other guy to do their trees, it just really urkes my nerves. especially after I went there and they said they were going to wait. I had a elder couple with a dead avocado tree in their yard and I offered to cut it down for a great price so I could get the wood. I usually sell to this one guy and he buys eveything all the way to the brush. The next week they had my compotition out there. I know that if he would have done it him self, he would have either took a month or got hurt.
How long did it take your neighbours next door to take down their tree?
