After the arctic blast we had in early January, some of the trees at the house needed some serious attention. Most of the damage was minimal except for the 18 foot limb that landed on the deck like a lawn dart, it ripped 20 foot of gutter off and tried like hell to get through the roof as well (thank god we went overkill on the roof joice and rafters).



Its all taken care except for the pruning, (yay, my favorite thing to do) Next time we build I'm getting a lot w/o all the god damn trees!!!

Believe it or not that was it, fully extended. I wanted to get a 60' stick boom, but the shear weight would surely break the concrete driveway
