It sure does take a special kind of person to be a climber. Short-bus special.:|:

When I was a ski racer, my coach always used to say, "The question isn't whether or not you are crazy. The question is, are you crazy enough?"
 
I like ridding the short bus.:D

And as far as the winter blues goes... thats what my snowplow and snowmobile are for.
 
Short bus and a helmet...

...Lord forgive me for that.

OTG when does the equipment truck leave Yawkey Way?

I dream of having the courage to climb a tree and work it down. The pictures posted here are AWESOME. Makes me feel so small climbing 20' to hook up someone's phone.

But there is a rush when I come down, makes me want to do it over and over again.
 
First job was at the Stihl dealer, worked there 5 years, mechanic most of the time. Didn't make hardly any money at all and no benefits. Found out about the utility hiring for right of way guys. I talked to one of the supervisors that work there a few times, i worked on the saws they used
(still do but at home now :D ). Figured I would give it a go. Been doing it for 2.5 years now and enjoy it quite alot.
 
just sharpened my silkey shuigo waiting for it to bit me still

I've always needed a rush to hold my interest for very long.

Climbing just worked well with a botany schoolin.

Now let me start by saying... Good for you son!
It's always good to see young people taking an interest in danger.
Now a lot of people are going to be telling you you're crazy,
and maybe they're right. But the fact of the matter is:
Bones heal. Chicks dig scars. And the United States of America
has the best doctor-to-daredevil(treeclimber) ratio in the world!

Just so you know that's a quote from the Simpsons and not my own creation.
 
If they(lawyers) come after you, you can always just turn them on to Darin. Afterall you only quoted him.:D
