With all the rain and wind, lots of trees down in town.  Cottonwoods break off and drop 3-foot diameter limbs.  this guy up the street had an oak blow over.  root rot.  helped him get the bigger logs out to mill.  he is retired and did all the limb work making trips to his farm north of town.






PPE missing.

I can't avoid it. I bring 3 or 4 shirts to rotate and a shower towel to wipe the sweat off me and sweat rags. It's gets bad 30 mins into it by then all my clothes are soaked. Sweat pouring in ur eyes, steam rolling out of my helmet lol. 

I start as early as I can lately that's been about 530am. Finish some days by 11 when it's real hot. 

SwampDonkey

I wear a skull cap under the helmet to keep sweat out of my eyes. I change clothes before the ride home. I work from 6:00 am to 2 or 3 in the afternoon unless it's over 80°, then it's noon sometimes 11:00 especially in the 90's heat.
