Well, we finally did it! It’s taken a full year, but Courtney and I (with a little help) have planted trees.<\/p>\n
Eight of them to be exact – 5 fruit trees and 3 flowering trees. Whoo-hoo!<\/p>\n
It’s been a labor of love. Courtney and I first started and the ground was so hard. We thought renting an auger from Home Depot would solve the problem. Well … that didn’t work.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
So, we waited until it rained. Bingo! We could dig holes. Unfortunately, two decided to fill up with water … so we had to wait a couple of days to finish up those. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
Here’s one of them.<\/p>\n
Can you see all the others? (Trick question … ones out back …) Plus I’ve learned that ones the leaves fall off of very young and skinny trees – it’s a little hard to see them.<\/p>\n
