Yeah, Janie, the drought has taken a toll on alot of the older established hardwoods from Georgia north to Maryland... The trees are definately stressed out and that is why every time we get a somewhat normal t-storm, trees come down... And the bugs are loving all of this...

But some good news... Seein' as I really don't get paid for the work I do on my old hotel it's nice that the P-Vine sold a small job to someone who came to the center last weekend and so tomorrow I'm off in the truck to plant 5 five foot cryptomeria yoshinas for one of her customers and am going get actaully get paid for doing it... Hooray!!!
