Good Morning (almost afternoon here) Folks.
Spent a good part of the morning doing storm cleanup. Last year, I dug up a Mimosa sapling ( took 11 of them to get one to survive) and planted it in our upper “nature area” where Angela’s shade deck is. They are very invasive ( think of them as the GSP of the plant world) and the saplings pop up everywhere. By the time they are a foot tall, they have a tap root about 2 feet deep so it’s very hard to get one out without killing it. After 10 failures, “Mimi the Mimosa” was planted where Angela wanted her. In a years time, it grew almost 4’ tall and was doing great. Yesterday, a giant dead limb came down out of one of the white oaks and guess where it landed. Right up against Mimi! She lost a few limbs but I treated them with tree wound sealer. Fingers crossed!
Anybody ever do their salmon on the grill cooking on a wood plank. Yummy!
Weather here is supposed to be nice for the holiday weekend. We don’t really have any plans because we’re going to the Smokey Mountains next weekend.
Hope Y’all have a safe weekend and enjoy friends and family!
