Now I took the workshop on Friday and didn't buy any trees and drove the two hours home. That night I couldn't sleep thinking about the Ponderosa and this little Juniper. Saturday morning my wife asked what's wrong and I told her that I'm not sure if I should buy the Ponderosa. She questioned me then said "Call Nature's Way and buy the Ponderosa." I did and said I can pick it up next Saturday. Sunday morning She saw me pacing and said "go get your tree now."
So off I go to get mt tree. When I pulled into the parking lot Jim Doyle saw me and grinned ear to ear. I few people I knew from Rosade's and Allshapes were in the Sunday workshop. After talking we went and looked at at my Ponderosa and the other trees. The little juniper was still there so I picked it up, carried it down and stated this one is mine.
I still can't state what it is I like but I do like it.


Now dang it Waltr!!!
I hate Junis but that one makes me want to rethink those thoughts!
Dang it! If you decide you don't really want it PM me Dang it!
