Seat time this morning

[Harry]

Out of the 300 seedlings that I grew I had to lose close to 30 of them because I didn't move them away from each other. The last ten are in a bunch about five feet apart and they are at least ten feet tall. So all the bottom branches are browned out and ugly. This morning I removed two of them to the burn pile with my 644.

Too bad they couldn’t be replanted. Looks like your 644 made short work of it!

[Harry]

I have planted some 10"+ trees before with 6' diameter root balls. Some made it and some died out the previous year. A lot of work for me and the 644 with forks on the bucket. The last time I moved six and when using a post pounder to put in stakes to hold them in place I hurt my right rotator cuff. I went through therapy to recover and it still hurts today. I've decided to eliminate the last ten to clean up the space and not put my body through the torture.

Keep the Peace
Harry
