I just couldn’t wait to plant trees in our wide open patch of land. If I had my way, it would be a forest out there. I love everything about huge shade trees – the way they look so wild and how the sun and moonlight sparkle on the leaves and cast shadows on the ground. I have envisioned our yard looking like the one I grew up with in New York. We started early and transplanted a Cottonwood, three pomegranate shrubs, and four little Royal Empress trees. I’m not sure that they will all survive the transplant shock, but we are hoping!
I never imagined that we would enjoy working in the dirt quite as much as we do. I think there’s a little country in all of us.
