Drift.. the other day you described your location way up in a tree, and I thought, I'd like to see some pics of that, I've done quite a bit of working aloft as we said. There's definately something about it.  Top of mast to waterline on the Ship when I was a sailor was around 200 feet . Walking on fiberglass and aluminum about 8 inches wide, underway trying to improve the picture replacing the antenna   off the coast of the Carolina's so the Captain can watch the game. I climb utility poles at work now but I've never been up in the tree with my belt and hooks. But I've often wanted to. Thanks for sharing.

Wooooweeee.....my toes are froze.I'm going to sit in this warm truck and watch my guys cut the 20'stalk that's left and warm up

Chillidrift,yea I've been doing this for the last 15yrs.On occasions I luck out and use a crane to hoist me to the tree tops other wise I'm in spikes and saddle all day majority of the time.Much easier with a crane especially when there's snow or ice on the tree.Keeps me young and somewhat fit..LOL

PC,I told ya I'd see you at the bottom,so hear I am cheese...lmao

Oh, right now it's 28F with some snow on the roads, but it's supposed to warm up next week.  Tuesday is supposed to be 55F, but rain.

  You know Phil I though you were above that teasing of people, but you seem to take preverse pleasure in teasing us that can not ride, if it makes you feel better then have at it I for one have broad shoulders, and do not mind the hard times you like to dish out, so bring it on.....

My garage is still blocked with 9" of snow and we have 6ft icicles hanging from our roofs.

I'm not riding yet..
