Im excited!

i get to plant 5 trees on tuesday. for my 79 year old uncle, he didn’t have anybody else to help him. he bought some flowering dogwoods and some redbuds we’re going to plant. high of 82 degrees on tuesday, so will be a good day to be outside. it’s 90 minutes drive both ways to his house and back. so 3 hours on the road, and probably 2 hours digging holes. and he will probably buy me lunch so maybe another extra hour eating.

it will be a change of scenery, i haven’t been out of town since january, and it’s in one of the few cities in indiana that i like haha.

some guy told him he would do it for $750 bucks haha but he doesn’t have to pay me nothing. because of all the drive time, he couldnt find anybody in his city to help him. he bought them here for some reason, i guess he couldn’t find them in his city, which maybe means they don’t grow as well there 90 minutes north. it’s not like some small town with no economy, they have lots of action there and really cool architecture downtown. anyways my uncle is crazy haha. he doesnt move around too well anymore.

Good on you for helping him out. Good to hear. I want to plant an apple tree in my backyard to bring the deer in,. I guess it takes 7 years to bear fruit, but I’ve got nothing better to do LOL

yeah i was just thinking i hope my uncle bought mature trees that will flower right away so that he gets to enjoy them in the spring. his health is starting to fail and i don’t know how long he has left.

cool on the apple trees, it’s just a big waiting game when it comes to trees. im thinking about planting 7 cherry trees, but my neighbors have an apple tree and it also gets really pretty blooms on it before it bears fruit, in fact it hangs over the fence and apples fall on my property.
