By that picture I get the impression you have quite a bit to get in. Or are you just doing the road frontage?

Looks like a 35 footer. I had to do a weekly rental for a job, Monday morning to Monday morning. Made the job go great, got done with the lift on Friday, took it home, and over the weekend took down a maple tree I wanted gone. That was a good week!

Sorry, physics joke.
We used to sometimes show up at a new construction job (for siding) and power was run to the meter but no meter set yet. Old Crazy Dave (also known as Davey Crockett to some) my boss would go grab jumper cables and we were cuttin' with free electrons. He liked those jumper cables. Rainy muddy job site where the cutter has to use radial arm saw while standing in a puddle (aluminum siding)? No problem, Dave would drive a crow bar into the ground and hook the cables up to the saw to ground.
