Morning everyone.

Wow it's Wednesday already and I have to split wood and finish installing the door to the porch. My how time flies when your having fun.

My wife keeps telling me that trees are starting to turn here and there. I guess fall is upon us and leaf raking will be next.

This is for a large landscaping company...they're rebuilding a golf course in Hartford. Clearing and chipping brush, putting up silt fence and some other little stuff today

Thanks Andy, we've built crazier haha. This has been the easiest way to to get to chimneys for us that are in the middle of steep peaks. The good thing about it is that we do not attach anything to the customer's roof, the only bad thing about it is man handling those 16' planks around!

I can't tell you how many people have asked if you and your truck were coming back.
