Pruning job looks great. I have a VERY old Remington 10” electric chainsaw that I love. Corded. That was before batteries. That an a electric weedwhacker, so light. I just have plenty of extension cord.

Dad had 2 corded chainsaws, probably 10”. I used one once when one of our redbuds came down at the old place. He had LOTS of extension cords & I still had issues trying to reach that redbud - finally got there (barely). I brought both of them to our new place, but really needed a battery operated saw. Mom was skeptical, but after seeing what I’ve cut with it, she’s happy we have it.

Instead of spraying, I remembered I got a cobalt drill bit so I could screw the gutter back on the barn. That’s what I’ve been doing & my ‘plan’ to use deck screws & washers is working! The gutter is currently in full sun & I needed a shade & LMNT break. Once I finish the gutter, I’ll water the gardens, & definitely will be finished for the day.
