Its just a small tree right? But notice that its all planted in the ground and the rocks are spread around its base...... Its Done!!!!
The motor cycle never moved all day... And I started digging when it was still 66 degrees outside this morning....
The hole had to be 18 inches deep and about 15 inches around... And I didn't use any water in the hole either... Just strong arm digging... The water tends to ball the clay all up and make mud pies... Then once the sun dries it, it becomes like rocks....
All of this desert soil is different no matter where you are, and I think ours was graded with earth movers when they made this sub division.. That broke it all up into fine particles which then set like concrete when they got wet...
Pardon me here I'm ODing on my hard work here...... even Biscuit is out checking it out.....
But of course all work came to an abrupt stop when Kansas was playing the NC folks in the afternoon.... And they again scared the crap out of us when they looked so flat and out of it during the first half...
They got way behind..... But the Jayhawks play in spurts... and Bill Self must have the right stuff to start those spurts, because when they took the floor in the second half they exploded...
You see the NC coach used to be the Jayhawks coach... And we all were quite peeved when he left for North Carolina... But he was never able to motivate the Kansas team like Mr. Self......
I don't think there is a person in Kansas that would have Roy Williams back........ Well, there is always someone...

Nice job on the tree, Rod. It looks great but it must have been a lot of work.
ReplyDeleteI thought we might have another upset brewing in that Kansas game until lights out in the 2nd half.
Hey the tree looks great, digging in Arizona is no fun and can really put the hurt on your back. Now you have an excuse to take the day off and relax!
