Tropical Storm Debby has left these ladders temporarily unnecessary. I have lots of tree limbs down - hoping I don't lose any trees.

BRIGHT EYES - "Ladder Song"

No one knows where the ladder goes.
You're gonna lose what you love the most.
You're not alone in anything.
You're not unique in dying.
Feel estranged every now and then.
Fall asleep reading science fiction.
I wanna fly in your silver ship.
Let Jesus hang and Buddha sit.
It's on now.
The days are long now.
The ups and the sun downs, in a twisted mind.
If I got to go first.
I'll do it on my terms.
I'm tired of traitors, always changing sides.
They were friends of mine.
Don't hang around once the promise breaks.
You'll be there when the next one's made.
Kiss the feet of a charlatan.
Some imagine freedom.
All the rest is predictable.
You can say you're the first to know.
Bought a mantra to concentrate.
Car alarm or hissing snake.
I know now. How its going to turn now.
You gotta calm down, or Ill lose my place.
Gotta get to the center.
Gotta get to the concert.
Run off with a dancer.
Gonna celebrate.
Welcome the new age.
Covered in all your pain.
Lights from the jungle to the sky.
See now a star's born.
Looks just like a blood orange.
Don't it just make ya want to cry?
Precious friend of mine.
Well I know when its finally done.
This whole life is a hallucination.
You're not alone in anything.
You're not alone in trying to be.
