That sure is a big un. Looks like pretty fat growth rings. White oaks seem to be in decline around here. I have to take and post a pic of one around the corner, if I can figure out how to do that.

Deva, you just have to pick and choose what you can do alone. Or, if having two will speed you up into the next job. More complex, the more company you should keep.
I did a dwarf mistletoe removal in two small sugar pines today. SRT with a 75' or so TIP. HO clean up. Then went and did a small chipping job. The rest of the crew is working a creek bed and removing dead trees. I will join them tomorrow.
A Marios crew had a TD to do on the other side of the house.
Some office views.

Dave: Like Mick, I notice the nail right in the middle (the big stain). Did the boys hit it?
Jed, yes there is plenty of blue...All he said was it was loaded with metal, didn't mention hitting it. maybe he will come on later and say. Sucks for them trying to sell it.
I wasn't there, he emailed me the pic and I put it up for him from home.

I was lucky enough to miss the nails, cable, and power line insulator.i guess they already have a buyer looking at it for quarter sawn veneer. Must be the buyers aren't as picky as the used to be

This.
Mostly, when I've been climbing, I've had an experienced, old, slow climber, or guys that I wouldn't trust to slap on gear and get themselves safely up the way.
Deva, how is your safety record, situational awareness, ability to stop when you should, etc?
Have an emergency contact list, family and other tree climbers who you know who will come bail your ass out in the event the fire dept/ rescue can't, which is most times, around here. A city might have more of a bucket/ ladder truck access. Planning for the contingencies helps you avoid them.
Working alone as a lone cowboy is one thing, working and climbing alone when you're a husband/ partner and parent is another. You should be a lot less likely to make any "aw F-it" choices.
When you're working alone, and doing clean-up, it doesn't matter is you're a superstar climber and pruner/ killer, you're doing grunt work. Decide how much is sensible and how much to have an employee. Consider an employment service for occasional grunt work.
Working alone, you have no distractions of supervising employees.

That's just it Sean. If things look iffy I tend to back out if I'm alone.
