Ah! I do still luckily have most of the hair, but alas the body is paying the toll of a stupid youth ( I had one of those Superman costumes that didn't let me get hurt
, invisable as it might have been). Bad knees, back, shoulder, arthritis, bursitis, and a two year old running around the house (my 2 yr. old) it's tough to know your limitations when you are young at heart. Oyyyyyyyy! I just sat down.
. Yup a couple of missing teeth too unfortunately, backs not fronts you know ah huh!
I must say, knowing what I know now, I may have done things just a bit differently.
Then again, I just participated in a pasture dig where I dug for myself 4 trees out of the clay, it was tough lugging them just the 50' to where you could get the truck, helped a couple others dig and lug. When is the trip to the mountains? Owwwww!
Soil work shop in the spring, you do what you gotta do. Makes sitting down to relax with a cold one a little more inviting anyway. At least now it Bonsai, instead of BONSAI! It involves some work, but the stress relief I get from working with my trees pays out in a big way.
