    You have beautiful property! I know about your concerns with the wind/weak roots too. I guess that’s one good thing about the liquid amber’s roots, they are everywhere. I have 13+ trees on 1/4 acre, including 9 liquid ambers, a redwood, a huge pine, and some smaller fruit trees. It’s hard enough keeping the walkways clear, keeping up with the gutters is the worst part.

    *That said, I do most of the gutter cleaning with a cordless leaf blower, when it’s dry enough.

    Had this long reply typed out, then got a reply from her at work. Short story, there are definitely discounts and you should PM me about what you want.

    Call her if you need her, she's just starting out so willing to travel a bit to start getting experience. The $500 referal for you stands anytime for any friends or family you send her way. Thanks brother

    I really do feel your pain. I have three operators that are the same and two timber fallers. Three weeks left to log. Logs are on the ground and the mill is shutting us down for two months on the 22nd. I feel like my guys already are gone on vacation. :mad:

    Me too. I cut timber 15 years and every year I was off for four months. I loved it. Now I'm running a processor and lining out cutters and skidders. Kinda like a side rod. It's just trying when they want to go home. I don't stress though. I just have on other Porter!

    We’re making a big push before the rains. Our client wanted us running 14hr days. Told him we’ll run 10hrs max Mon. - Sat. The operators are all tired and that’s when guys start making bad decisions and people get hurt. Plus production drop dramatically after 10 hrs.

    ;) Nice truck Sam!


    Yeah! Trees suck! This 60' wide/ tall Coast Live Oak (Quercus agrifolia) in my backyard drops shit on my truck all the time! I'd cut it down, if it wasn't so godamn majestic.

    Also, my retirement plan is for me and the wife to build an awesome treehouse, live in it, and rent out our home. #thegivingtree

    Yes sir! I also ran excavator for a few years digging new construction dry utilities. I know the feeling. Good luck though. Those developers sometimes are nerve racking.
