I might go sign my parents up for the Arbor Day Foundation. Thanks for the idea KN! I didn’t know you get 10 free trees. I might go sign my parents up for the Arbor Day Foundation.

I know why Lindsey didn't see any bucks while hunting- they were all down here feasting in our yard. At least we don't have the "blessing" of beavers. I know some people not too far from here, close to the river, who have quite a bit of a problem with them. Not fun. I can understand wanting to live in the country- even being overwhelmed and disappointed sometimes- we really enjoy it. If we decide to plant more, we'll look into the Arbor Day Foundation. Thanks for the reminder, KN!

(Only sort of free, then, I guess.) I feel very sad when trees die. Have you joined Arbor Day Foundation? Ten free trees for your $10 membership. (Only sort of free, then, I guess.)

This summer they were blessed, I mean annoyed, with a beaver that wanted to spend the summer with them. He took out two trees and I do mean took them out. He chopped them down and drug them through a fence down to the creek. They were anything but impressed by his work. Even after hearing all these stories of critters and the inability to grow things I still wish I lived in the country! Ahhh...how sad huh. My parents just replaced three trees from deer and gophers.

Sorry to hear you sad news. At least you can blame the critters...Ken and I usually kill everything through ignorance and neglect.
