New tree installed

    You wouldn't think that replacing an 8-foot-tall tree would be that difficult, but let me tell you it is!  First, we took an entire afternoon just trying to locate a tree of similar type and size.  Then, once we found one, we found out it had to be delivered because it weighed nearly 400 pounds!  Who would of thought?  So a week later, it finally arrived and we planted it, but not after going to Home Depot and buying $20 worth of "top soil" that they recommended placing it in to promote good growth.  By the way, it took about 3 hours from start to finish to dig the old one up, put the new one in, and clean up.  Next time we're having it done!
