@CurSedVoyce It's great you got into that tree after eyeballing it for over 20 years. 👍😎 And she cleaned up nice!

We did a large limb over a house but it is an ash tree a live honest to god ash tree. I haven’t cut on a live ash in six years.

Saw this white ash at a customers home this afternoon. I’ve only seen one other living ash tree and this one blows it away. There’s a black pen near the root flare in one of the pictures for scale (didn’t have anything else at the moment)
He gets it treated for EAB and has been doing so for about 8 years.
I’d love to climb it.

I wonder if the larger ash you see are treated?
Its about the size of Ireland, with 500,000 people. Two thirds of the state, just about, is either World Heritage Wilderness or Forest reserves. Topographically and habitat diverse for sure.
Spot brought me a live bunny this morning, but I was impatient and blew the recovery. She picked it up and ran around the house. I'm out in my PJs, barefoot, chasing the cat. She went around the other corner, and I lost her. Amazing how easily a bright white cat can disappear.

What's the prognosis for the bun? Shall I contact CSI?
At least one I know of is untreated
Yea, I've thought of a bell. She's not exactly /my/ cat though. She was a catch and release stray, and I've been feeding her for a couple years now. I also setup a shelter for winter. There used to be a bunch of cats that came for breakfast, but there was a big roundup or something, so the only two I get now are her and Blackie. Something happened to Blackie's right leg, and he's limping. He'd be hard to catch to take to a vet cause he's very skittish; completely feral. I could catch Spot. She likes me, and she comes over if she knows I'm outside. Strangely, mainly in the backyard. She acts weird if I'm in the front yard. Cats are weirdos :^D

Crap, I deleted my post because I thought it was silly and a waste of space. For those who didn't see it, I basically just said how some people put bells on their cats to make it impossible for them to hunt and I thought that might lead to feline boredom or depression. Cats really aren't my thing haha I'd rather haver a dog that thinks its a cat. Or a dog that's smaller than a cat. I've had both of those over the last many years.

Around here, that would be a privacy fence for a pot grow

Looks sturdy enough for bison

Around these parts, those posts would rot off in 5 years...or maybe 8, if one treated them.

Wouldn't matter much...young small diameter trees like that would not last long enough to be worth the effort to build that paddock with them. Here in NW Oregon, that is. Hand split posts from large old growth trees would last longer, but not much past 20 years.
Dryer climates, your mileage may vary

Had a fun couple of nights listening to music and watching the crowd. Woke up a little later than normal this morning. Went out and relaxed by a fire while everyone else slept.
Happy Father’s Day to all you dads out there

Stig is changing careers, going green so to speak. lol
No career change in that.
I used to grow pot back in the 70es.
Pretty much legal back then.
Then we got a right wing prime minister, who wanted to show his Jutland, born again, voters that he could tame the hippies.
Since then the pot market has been run by muslim gangs and Hells angels..........................................................Smart friggin' move, idiot!!!!
