Forecast for my neck of the woods looks OK - 50 on Friday, 52 for Saturday with rain. Then Monday it drops to the 30's. Guess it is time to finish the yard work in the next couple of days.

Morning . Hey BC what survived of the maple trees ? Did any seed grow ? I am ok if none grew . So no need to hold back bad news . Some seedlings here are not always red . Got one along the drive that is more bronze .

So fun happenstance I discovered today. I have a buddy coming early Nov to take some dead trees down that are a little too close to the house. Run out to get gas for the truck, and notice that the biggest culprit, i.e. six feet from the house has snapped off about 12' off the ground. Fell dead parallel to the house. That sucker was 40' tall and 16" around.

Thanks wind for blowing it away from me!

Jerry: I don't know if I waited too long to plant them and they were stressed. I put them in wet wooded areas ground areas so I feel like I didn't needed watering. But maybe I should have. There is one sturdier sapling that I think will make it. It held it's own the times I did walk bys checking on them all.. Unsure about the seed as yet. May take a year or so for me to see the resulting babies. I was not very attentive this year unfortunately.

I think I got most of them..... still supposedly 5 running around the yard if my records are right. Probably weed out at least half of these to take along for sale.
