    Merle's post is amazing. The line quoted above drew my interest the most. I think it is a very concise and eloquent way to describe the daily challenge of treework. Trouble is for me, yes it can sometimes be approached positively as a game but many other times those same parameters can seem...

    Hey now! Far be it from me to question anything Sir Jerry says about trees!! But! Idk if I'd agree with the assessment that it's easy money. Sure, on some days it can definitely be some easy money. But then of course there are other days when ripping your tooth out with pliers would be...
