I see no mention of a shovel. It only says "you can dig and haul away".

I'll be right over. :)

We have a 365 where I work, I have run it. Has a long stick but we seem to only use it as an ME. I wish they would buy a shorter stick for it. We used to have a 375 and 385 and also a PC 600 that I've run as well. Do you run that?

No, I just found that pic using Google images. I've got quite a few hours in a Bobcat when I used to do snow removal, but that's about the biggest piece of equipment I've run.
 
10-4. I've run some bigger iron being an equiptment operator. I ran D 8 for a few years, which I liked most. We have a D 10 rented now for a bigger job we are doing but I haven't been in that. Bobcats are fun, I ran a JD track skid steerer on a job about a year ago, that was fun. Surprisingly strong for its size

Looks fun. They even have a fireplace in the house. I wouldn't think about cutting that one if it was my house.

condition: excellent

Free to cut and remove. We must be present to cut the Ash tree. It is the tree to the right.

OK homeowners, just go and stand right over there... no, a couple more feet to your left... perfect!

All right, here we go: *RRRRrrrrrrrrr....*

(Some version of that joke must have been posted here a zillion times before. Apologies for my inexperience.)
 
Then move the blasted boat !
 
I actually felt bad for that individual... on a fixed income, can't afford to have the tree taken down... then I saw the boat. ;hm

I've taken down trees in yards before just for the wood but I say they must be there to help cleanup the small branches and I won't cut one down that is foliated at the time. It's alway been for a neighbor.
