I know you probably won't see this Chris, but I appreciate you man. So nice to sit here with my 4 year old Grandson and not have to worry about the f word being used or any other non family content on your channel. Very refreshing. Thank you sir.

Finally a video I can give a little bit of advice.....Chris take a mental note of the main wind direction has you are taking down a lot of trees that are acting has a wind break take the trees away and the trees you are leaving will be taking the full brunt force of the wind which in turn could blow over the existing trees on to the old homestead or even the new build.....people never take this into consideration I used to estimate insurance claims and its nearly always the same thing removed some trees left the odd nice one near or close to the home and without surrounding trees for protection from wind hurricane tornado etc they go over pretty easy.....hope this info helps out...Stay Safe LD18
