Oh, I'm a lumberjack and I'm okay

Removed another two dead leaders from the rowan this morning, working from our porch roof and then from a step ladder,  with Wife belaying a tension line to guide the fall.  Those were the last bits that could actually threaten our house with deadly force.

And we managed to miss all the rose bushes underneath, as well as Junior Rowan.

Now Neighbor has more firewood for his outdoor burner, and we have the obligatory trash barrel of twigs for collection next Friday.
