So I've known this guy since were were kids, hes a great dude. Its just the position one is put in when you have earthmoving equipment and experience.
So as I said, history repeated itself, he bought this lot right next to a lake, real nice piece of property and wants a driveway and pad installed. We went and looked at it, it is a heavely wooded area and he exclaimed he would have all the trees cut and taken care of. So about a day later he exclaims "Trees are down" I was kinda shocked as it was ALOT of trees. I said "you were able to cut, limb and top all those trees in a day"....silence...."no I just dropped them all"
I went over there and sure enough they were all dropped in a big pixie stick mess, which is worse than leaving them standing! He said "dont worry about it just stack them up and I'll deal with them" Well that is easier said then done and your cord of wood would be a mile high with all the branches! He ended going back and limbing all the ones and we then came in and picked up each one, limbed and stacked.
Total P.i.t.a, once we got down to his pad area he decided he wanted another driveway and pad installed up on this ridge area..haha this happens quite a bit as homeowners are like "while you're here with the equipment can you etc, etc, etc" I just smiled and said "sure, what are friends for
"
It all turned out really well in the end here are some pictures (oh, and I didnt do this one for free:thumbsup)
