Nice day to pick "road kill" onions off the farmers road! Currently about 63 degrees and the sun is shining!

Hubby sneaking off to go duck hunting, something he has not done in years! Somebody gave him a new "lease" on life and he is going to take advantage of it!! :)

Way to go, Colleen's husband! He looks fantastic!!! And, how do you find road kill onions? They surely don't grow that large along the road, do they? Did they fall off of a farm truck on the way to market? Those are nice ones!
Mitch, I love this time of year, too! Got a nice shower finally, actually had puddles and water standing in some parts of the yard yet this evening. Ground is so hard, taking a while to soak it up.

We had such nice warmth today but spent it slaving over that tree we were digging up and moving. Man what a job! Am dead again! Tree is up and planted and tied to 4 stakes otherwise our wind around here would knock it down in one full swoop!
It got a boo boo on one side of the trunk but hubby put a piece of duct tape on it to make it feel better.

Here it the poor thing crammed up against our house not look too good. It's the one on the right.
Hoping it will grow better in its new spot.

All dug out around it but underneath there is some long tap roots.

So we had to resort to the neighbors tractor to try and pry it up. Really took a toll on that root ball and not much dirt was left on it when it got moved so hope it lives.

Here's the hole it was put into to live the rest of its hopefully long life.

Here it stands getting a nice watering and tied to 4 stakes.

This one is next and last on the moving list. Not as big as the other one thankfully.

Getting to the conversation late but ya, trees need to be away from right next to the house. Last year, we had a tiny one, which grew to over a 2 story house, cut down.

Oh this dumb woman at work tonight drove me over the edge!! She has only been there for two months, but she knows it all!! She works at the till, probally never missed a break ever, never had to move tons of pallets in the freezer, never had to clean mice shit, and I am sure she never worked overtime for free to get the job done either!
Some one call the dog catcher!!
That b*tch was loose telling young kids up in the lunch room that the strike is wrong and how to sneak across the line!!!
For the love of Poppy, this is the 11th hour and I had to listen to her crap!!!
