I've been cutting up all the trees that were blown over last Monday. Burned up my Poulan chain saw. Kathy bought me a new Stihl farm boss for my birthday. Man, what a difference. This thing cuts! Today I start on the 7' tall wood fence that got beat up. 40' of board and 6 posts broken. I have to dig out all the concrete that holds the posts in the ground, then replace them. Been fighting with the insurance company. Tree company gave me a 3600 dollar estimate. Insurance will only cover 1000. Minus 250 deductible. I rented a Cat back-hoe to get the bigger limbs that were stuck in the tree tops down. A little scary.
Hank, I think we all have relatives like that. A couple of my brothers are constantly asking for my advice. They do the exact opposite of what I recommend, with bad results.
