|  The Ball and Chain
For those of you who have a wife you could probably relate.  Just got in trouble for spending to much time on arborist web sites (treeworld included), and not want to put wedding photos in albums and fames. She thinks I have a problem cause I work with trees all day, and spend most of my free time reading about or climbing trees, or looking for that new bit of climbing gear i must have and cant live without. Is this normal or do i need to sort my life out  |

No it's not. My wife is ok with it. But she is different, maybe it is because her dad and brother are tree trimmers too.And that she is raising 2 soon to be tree trimmers.I'd take my 3 and 2 year olds, Damm child labor laws.
