I'm waiting for power company people to come here and look some of the woods over. I've got over 100 trees I want to cut, but they might be tall enough to hit their new high lines. It's hard to tell, and I'd hate to guess and be wrong. They are all on the uphill side and all leaning towards those high-lines. No way I could make them fall the other way.
I found three of their brand new high line cables that are frayed. Looks like a tree already hit them once and caused them to burn. Tree is laying on the road already cut up. I assume some power line emergency worked did it this winter, and maybe didn't even notice the wires are frayed?
What was once an American power company called Niagara Mohawk, is now owned by a company in Spain and called National Grid. And the other big company is now owned by a company in England. So, I'm not so sure how much they want to help a "foreigner American" like me. We'll see.

You know your height & can measure both your shadow & tree's shadow, then ratio. It will be as exact as your measurements.

While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame. The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
