Well, I got home from seeing family and found my friend Roy, up in the dead red oak tree. He'd fashioned his own cable ladder, with giant bolt screws for rungs, and when he first climbed the tree, he used a modified ice skate on one foot and a cowboy boot with spikes on the other. He's quite a fabricator. Yesterday he had all the top limbs and the top section of the tree down. What will he do next? Thanks Roy!
