It is just that this has me so flustered its easy to forget. I am the one who dropped the ball.

I finished off what was left of daylight by going out to Wallies and getting one of those electric leaf vacuums and converting about 2 years worth of fallen pin oak leaves piled up against the house and front deck, into half a contractors bag of mulched up stuff. I helped Dee plant that tree, about 8 feet of it then, at least a year before we married in '89. Now its around 60 feet high, and this time of the year, a very prolific leaf producer. And thats a fire hazard I didn't clean up very well last fall, didn't feel like it. It looks healthy, but its sheer size is making me think It could come down in the next high wind. It was the only one still standing on this street after a straight line blow of 112 mph came off the hill west of here about 600 feet. Anything else over 20 feet tall went down, broke off or uprooted. It was then pushing 50 feet tall, and Dee watched it from the front door, bending back and forth at least 20 feet each way. A pin oak is one tough cookie, grab a set of ratcheting loppers and go trim off a 1" thick branch thats hanging a bit low, you'd think you were cutting 1/2" steel rebar with bolt cutters. Converting that into sticks small enough to burn in the trash burner is best described as a 4 letter word, work. But the summer shade is priceless. Not to mention it cuts the AC bill. Back on subject, what did you think of what I found today? Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
