Michael Kasky, owner of Kasky Tree Service, trims trees in the late afternoon March 5 between Carbondale and De Soto. Kasky said the business has been a hobby for the last 15 years, but it really started after a storm in 2009. “When the May 8 storm came through here I had all the cutting in the world I could do,” Kasky said. “Every week I had a job to go to so I kept going and kept paying the bills and here’s where I am now.” – March 5, 2016, Carbondale, Ill.
