New Tree

You may remember that we had to take down the magnificent 92 foot tall tulip poplar tree in front of our house a couple of years ago. It was our last tree of the five that we had when we moved here. Tornadoes and Hurricane Ike did bad things to them and we took them down, each in turn.



This year the lilac bush is gone as it was rotting inside. The bush on the west edge of our yard may not have survived the vicious winter. The verdict is still out on that one. Which pretty much leaves our yard denuded. We still have a young rose of Sharon bush and a couple of bridal veil bushes, but they are set way back on the property. Also the dogs will have no place to rest in the shade in the summer.

So we decided to get rid of the satellite dish that we haven't been using for over a year now. (I'm sick of mowing around it anyway.)
 
And since the hole was already available, we went out and found a tree that won't endanger the power lines, but will be big enough to cast a little shade.
 
 
Thanks for visiting with me,
