Trees

We are now the proud owners of three new crape myrtles. Each one is eight to ten foot tall.

For free.

How do you ask?

John and Mitzi, our good friends at church, had some friends who are redoing their backyard. The crape myrtles were planted all around the pool. They were making a mess of the pool so they had to go.

John, Mitzi and hubby went to dig them out. All was well.

Hubby worked hard. One tree was giving him a problem. He muscled it hard. He lost his balance. He fell backward, fully clothed, into the pool.

Sure made for a good story at church today.
