Francisco Vasquez, Tree Trimmer

Updated: March 15, 2013

So, you thought your job was tough! Francisco Vasquez has been climbing swaying, twisting palm trees for decades.
He learned it from his father in his native Tampico, Tamaulipas. He taught him the simple tools of the trade: A ladder, a security chain and a machete. La Feria News caught up with him at the Dairy Queen in La Feria.
