I BROKE MY NOSE...This Yard Transformation Was INSANE

Описание: The start of the new year began not only with another large-scale job, but also with an unpleasant incident that occurred a few days later. This yard needed radical pruning of the hedge, overgrown bushes, and removal of dry spruce trees. After assessing the scope of the work in advance, I took an assistant and a wood chipper with me, arrived at the appointed time, and immediately began trimming a huge laurel tree, which was about 8 meters high. and I had to shorten it to 2.5 meters. Using a ladder, I began pruning, while my assistant prepared the wood chipper and began working, dragging all the fallen branches and chipping them. Meanwhile, I finished with the laurel and pruned another magnolia tree standing nearby, since I had to trim everything to approximately the same height along the entire length. I also dragged the fallen branches and spread them out on the overgrown lawn, after which I trimmed another yew tree. By this time, my assistant had finished shredding the laurel branches, and I helped him move the shredder to the lawn, where another huge pile of cut branches was waiting for him. I also took out and unloaded several full bags into the trailer. Then I went back into the yard and started pruning another yew tree, but since the branches were large and the tree was on the border with the neighbor's fence, I used rigging and my assistant helped me knock them down into the yard as I cut them. After that, we dragged the branches to the chipper, and I helped him cut them up and took several more full bags away. It was time to remove the dried spruce that grew next to the soda house. I climbed the tree and cut the large branches from the back of the tree so that it would be easier to pull them to our side. Then I tied a rope and my assistant pulled again while I sawed. The tree fell as planned. It was already evening, and we finished the job.

The next day brought a surprise in the form of snow, but I got to work anyway, cutting up the spruce and moving all the branches to the trailer. Then I cut down some thuja trees that were on the left side of the garden shed. I tried to use the shredder, but the blade shaft was frozen because it had rained yesterday and there was probably water inside. But since the trailer was already full, I decided to come back here as soon as the snow melted a little. Two days later, the snow had almost melted, and I continued my work, shredding the thuja branches and starting to prune again, beginning with the laurel to give it a smooth look, then trimming a small beech bush, and also pruning around the perimeter of the yard. On the left side, I trimmed the laurel hedge only on the side of the yard, as there was a fence marking my client's boundary and the hedge belonged to the neighbor's house.
It was drizzling that day and I got completely soaked, but I was in a hurry to finish the job, as I only had a couple of bushes left and then the last rhododendron bush. After trimming it a little, I went to reposition the camera, leaving the trimmer on the ladder, and when I returned, I wanted to move it forward a little, but the trimmer got stuck in the bush and suddenly jumped right into my face. I just felt a strong blow and sharp pain, and only then did I realize what had happened. I had to finish the job and go to the hospital to get an X-ray, but I was lucky because only the cartilage on my nose was damaged. A few days later, I returned and started putting everything into green bags and carrying it all to the trailer. It was raining lightly and the snow was melting quickly. In the meantime, I unloaded the trailer and returned. I also trimmed the neighbor's ivy near the garage and tried to cut it off the roof, but there was still ice where the frozen bushes were. After a while, I returned and mowed the lawn, as in some places the grass was uncut and thick, but it was difficult to mow because everything was wet. Then I used a moss and weed remover, first cleaning the parking lot near the garage and then the other side of the house, but it was already getting dark and I didn't have time to finish because I wanted to clean the overgrown path leading to the garden shed. So I came back the next day and finished the job. With the moss remover, I cleared the path, which was covered with a thick layer of grass, moss, and dirt. Then I collected everything in a wheelbarrow and dumped it into the compost pile. After that, I used a shovel to trim the edges of the path and clean everything up, and then I blew it all away. The appearance of this yard changed completely for the better, but finally, I also mowed the grass in front of the house with a trimmer and trimmed the coniferous bush to give it a finished look.
This work took me about 25 hours, and I also hauled away four full trailers.
