I rented a hoist this weekend to help me take down a big, dead tree in the woods in our back yard. This hoist goes very high, and it needed to. You probably know me enough to know that I don't like heights. I especially don't like heights in a basket at the top of a hoist extended 50 feet high, starting a chain saw and leaning out of said basket to take down tree limbs weighing several hundred pounds! That basket sways back and forth with every movement.

The good news is that I got the job done and kept my pants dry.
