    Chopping down trees has always been to me on a par with watching paint dry but I must admit that your commentary has kept me going to the end. You have a precious skill. Keep it up + I just loved the herky birds

    From the sounds that the 302 makes, I get the idea that it needs bushings and pins on most of its bucket parts. More rainy day work.

    “Guilty of Treeson” is a good tree felling channel as well.

    The 'office' gave it all today - felling trees is not for the faint hearted - good decision on the the two 'ifs'.

    The old saying here in New Hampshire is. If it's 3 let it be. That ivy is 5 leaf it's not poison ivy. poison ivy has 3 leaves. keep up the great work. love you guys from Derby

    The shot of those military planes were awesome! You had the 304 closer than I would have when you cut that big tree down by the railing, but all went according to plan!

    Pretty cool seeing the 130s, barges and a helicopter. Gotta say though.. that was a nifty leaf rake you had lol. Awesome video Capt! All that action, and nobody got hurt, and nothing gotten broken or damaged I'd say that was a pretty great day! 👍

    @chuckgulledge2304 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Those C-130 come out of Dobbins Air Base in Atlanta almost everyday. They fly so low you can almost see the pilots and you can feel the power of them as they fly over

    Back in the day, I was a deckhand on the Ohio River working for ACBL. Later I worked for the Corps of Engineers at some of the Locks and Dams. I retired from Newburgh Locks/Dam in 2015. I remember coming up/down the river by Derby. I remember Flint Island on the KY side. I was also in the Air National Guard in Pittsburgh, PA then Terre Haute, IN. Later in the AF Reserve.

    Loved that you got the planes at the intro, very cool and lucky timing! Funny watching you come trotting out of the woods to grab the camera. Oh and Darrell, if you ain’t got nothing nice to say, well, maybe just move on. Negativity doesn’t look good on you.

    You know cottonwood makes bad firewood 🪵 but there maybe a good fix you may like to try but it’s up to the owner you can dig a deep ditch by the river could maybe a help on erosion of land you put the trees 🌳 standing on end in the ditch kind of like a fence it deep in the ground this would help hold the dirt in place. But up to you. Have a great week

  • @garrysgarage1958
    @garrysgarage1958 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Water maples. Also known as silver maple or soft maple. Lousy trees for yards but make great fence boards. I have a pile of them at my homeboy Larry’s place and I plan on sawing them into fence boards as soon as I get my old sawmill to operate properly. You can check out my sawmill struggle on my channel if you’re interested.
    It’s nice having some equipment around. Sure helps when you pinch your saw (as will happen).

    Hey Bud you might not be a logger FINE but you can read the trees and if you need him I'm guessing logger Wade would be happy to come pick on you while he's cutting. Seriously though great job Bud way to keep up with that soft one. I've seen guys panic and you were calm smooth and didn't stop just did exactly what you should have and give it the gas be ready to run. The tree itself doesn't look like it was real bad until the plunge that's when the pucker factor rises quick. As always good luck and God Bless

    I drove by last night the see what was new and it's looking good Mike. I really enjoy this series due to the personal history with the property. When we first bought it, from the river to the riprap hadn't been touched in years and the brush was 8 to 10 feet tall. Spent dozens of hours with a chainsaw and brushcutter to get it where it was when you started and it's nice to see the current owner continuing on with the dream. I'll give you one guess as to who carved the heart in that maple. :) And be glad the big hollow space in that tree is empty. 3 years ago it was filled with the biggest hornet nest I've seen in my life.

      I try to avoid cutting down trees, I have several friends who are professionals and they are great about helping me take care of the Wildlife Center and its grounds. That said, I do like watching "Cottontop3" and "August Hunicke". I highly recommend both as serious professionals and skilled cutters. August has a side company called "Monkey Beaver" and he and his team create and sell specialty logging gear. And you just HAVE to see the giant trees they have out west!

    Totally agree with your comment about "the view from your office", in fact the views from your home are pretty stunning too! I don't think I would be much help, as I would end up gazing at all those Tugs and Barges all day. The amount they push and size of those barges are amazing!
