      @Matt:

      @Giles Why are you doing this with pruning shears?

      Because that's all I've got.  And anyway, a hedge trimmer or chainsaw makes the hedge look like the Texas Chainsaw Massacre…......I did have to resort to a saw for the branches over 1/2 inch.....

          @endo Extremely envious and outstanding picture!!!!  @Matt I would love to see the nest, if you get a chance.  I have never seen one in person (but have through the Internet).

          Here’s the one in our front yard from last year…

              We saw them once or twice in Baltimore.  Saw one oriole in 40 years.  Never saw a Raven.  In ABQ I see humming birds and Ravens every day.

                        @Giles My neighbour trims his bushes with a electric hedge trimmer and they always look like shite…He gets mad because mine look better (I use Felco hand pruner’s also).  In the past I suggested he try doing them by hand and it was not well received…c'est la vie  🙂

                                      @mclaincausey one thing I wonder every time I see a Red Rocks photo - how does the seating work? Is it just a case of stand where you want or does the ticket allocate you a row or zone?

                                      A Billy, Tyler or Sturgill gig at RR will be forever bucket list material for me!

                                      Just numbered seats like anything else, but the seats are really wide (best described as risers) so that you can dance. At some shows a bunch of nerds will sit down and ask or demand that everyone else do too (Tyler Childers had that—a lot of his fans here domestically are not the best).

                                      I’ve never seen it as crowded as it was this run. Managed to get great seats each night through luck and work.

                                      We were nice and close dead center last time we saw Sturgill here.

                                      @IH-GARY

                                      Think it, be it.

                                        You should check out Silky Saws if you're doing a fair amount of pruning and trimming work. I've got a few different models and I'm incredibly pleased with them. They're very effective and convenient enough to where I've forgone getting out the chainsaw for smaller jobs.
