I've mentioned this before. Bubba Gumps and pigeons.

Kayne. I HATE these birds. Hate.

I have to make a trip to buy a small 8-10" tree saw. It's been at least a decade since I cut back the crepe myrtles; it'll be another before I do it again. One of those "cheap tool trips" is what I can't escape thinking: Harbor Freight kind of purchase.

A dozen Crepe Myrtles.

The "trash" (as in limbs, etc.) truck runs Wednesday. There was the goal.

I started Monday morning ... and sure as hell the last limb was cut just AS the truck was turning on my street Weds, 2'ish.. I was literally dragging the last branch to the street when they started dropping their braces for the bucket. The pile was almost head high and as wide as four parking places. Yeah. I'm still tired.

HOWEVER...

Best purchase I've made in a while was dropping a few bucks on a cheaper battery powered 8" chain saw which may weigh three or four lbs with the battery. Understand, three of these trees were 45' or higher; the shortest at least 20'. They were planted in the spring of '93. But, that saw...geez, made quick work of them.
