I absolutely do not like climbing tall ladders outdoors. Sometimes you have to, or you pay someone. Too many people break backs and other bones falling off ladders and houses in general. If I paid someone and they were badly injured, they'd probably sue me anyway. You can't win sometimes.
I use stools a lot because they are much safer, but they only reach so high. I have ladders and stools for work stuff... I have clean ones and ones that have crap on them like paint. I only take clean ones inside people's houses.
Got a new plant that I never had before. It is called a Foxtail Fern (Esparraguera africana). Not really a fern, that's just the common name. The tag says hardy to 32 degrees (freezing). Never grew one, but they are interesting plants for sun to part shade. Bought a big one and a real small one. Have no idea how fast they grow. If I like it, I'll probably bring it indoors for the winter. We'll see. Lots of competition for indoor space during the winter.
