Join Green Thumb Sundays

 I finally have the placement decided and the hole looks more than adequate. Right now I’m pretty pleased with myself for only taking a little more than an hour to get to this point. At the rate I’m going I’ll be done in less than 2. It usually takes me at least 2 hours to get this far.

 What took most of my time was picking up a little something that needed to be planted before the juniper.

  Overcoming it’s fear of gravity a rock learns to roll uphill.

 See that’s not so hard.

 I can’t believe how dumb rocks are, especially the flat ones. They fall for that ‘roll uphill’ bit every time. They’ll just sit there even after the tail gate closes behind them. I keep them chained just in case they decide to jump but none ever has. I think they’re in a state of shock that I outwitted them.

 A couple waves of my magic steel wand and I’m done. The juniper is now planted and it looks like the rock finally has a mate.

 Due to a massive hatching of Black Flies I’m getting out of Dodge. I’ll be back by Saturday to see if it’s safe to breathe. Meanwhile don’t hold your breath waiting for a reply. By the time you read this I’ll have already left.
