Well, that was kind of fun despite the itching from the splattering sap. I'm putting together a C/W quiz but I thought I'd post this first.
Had to cut back the fig tree in front. Probably should have done it about a month ago but the weather in January sucked so whaddya gonna do? Finally did it. I was chopping up the pruned branches to put in the green waste when a neighbor who has lots of tools and stuff offered the use of his mulcher. This is kind of a kid brother to a woodchipper.
I know essentially nothing about the movie Fargo, having never seen it, but I gather that a woodchipper plays an important role. I am acquainted with such beasts because my Dad had a tree trimming business when I was a teen. Truly, Jason and that dude with the chainsaw were pikers. You want REAL blood and guts horror, rent yourself a woodchipper.
Of course, this mulcher was more of a home-use machine but the principle is the same, and it was powerful and vicious enough to remind me of the old days of chipping up large, long chunks of wood.
Ah, memories. I may just have to rent Fargo sometime...
