some Palm trimming

This thing has been irritating me for a while now..lol. Sagging palms about 10 feet long, everytime I get in/out of the car I get head smacked..lol. So decided it was a good day for a haircut.!

Took off 5 palms, a seeding stock and cleaned her up a bit. I tell ya though, I am not a fan of standing on a ladder anymore, after about the 6th step the 'ol knees where getting that familiar wabble of unsteadiness, but I plowed through. Ever since dropping about 30 feet while bow hunting many years ago, the thought of doing crazy crap like this scares te hell of me. Only comforting thought was that If I did drop.. there were no branches to break the fall or any bones on the way down..


Old story: I was climbing into my hunting stand and attempting to strap in when my foot went off the front end of the stand before I got connected into my harness.. Long story short it was a fast drop and a couple branch bounces later before hitting the ground and trying to suck air...luckily I had no broken bones, just some extremely sore body parts for about a week or two. Even the guy who's property I was on said he could hear the drop and branches snapping from his trailer about 200 yards away.




But I think it looks better now, more sunlight, no annoying slapping palms, etc.
