Howdy,
Been off this board for a year and have really missed it. Lots of things going on, but nonetheless, I'll try to hang out again. I always enjoy it;-)
Stopped past a house where a guy was working a colossal ash tree and asked if he needed help. At the time, he said no, but took my number. A week ago I got a call from his brother, also his neighbor. Four ash trees, one sugar maple down and would I like to come help myself?
Really good guy, but not at the stage of life where he wants to do really hard work anymore. I've taken everything I can process from the sugar maple. It was hollowed out from a lightning strike. Maybe 30" diameter but I can't tell how serious the punk is.
The biggest ash rounds are 27" where the tree was cut. I don't really want to have to split a bunch of stuff before it even goes in the truck, but only because I'm not completely desperate for wood as so many years prior.
This rates as a high quality score because of the nice owner, level ground, driving right up to the wood, and shade can be found. I'll be full-up on the small stuff. Can anyone handle the bigger stuff?
I wouldn't mind helping him move the brush and I don't want to tear his lawn up.
Thanks,
Greg
