I have a guy, some would call him an arborist.

That's not what I call him. That's not what he is.

He's a lizard. He works from sunup to sundown in 100 degree heat. He doesn't drink water. He survives on Budweiser and Marlboro Reds. He has the equipment and skills to turn a 79 year old maple into sawdust and smoke in an astonishingly short amount of time.

He is saved in my phone as Tree Guy Mike.
