Soon I will reposition dish so it sees 72 to 105 or so.
Or cut the tree down.
Be careful cutting tree down. I cut down trees all the time, and don't think much of it, but last week I tried cutting down a dead birch tree (fairly big for a birch but not all that big). The thing almost got it's revenge on me. I'm always careful to make sure I have an escape route away from the way the tree is falling, however what I didn't realize was that this tree had a rotten spot a bit less than half way up, and when it started falling, the first resistance it felt from neighboring trees caused it to snap in half, and the upper half folded like a folding ruler, and came down very fast right toward me. I did manage to get out of the way, but it did give me a new appreciation for potential dangers while cutting trees.
