Up at 6:30. Who could sleep with this flying overhead for a half hour!? The crop duster is spraying again for gypsy moths. Back and forth just above the treetops. Had plenty of tijme to grab my camera, but it’s hard to catch a moving target trying to anticipate where it will come out over the trees. Got this one shot, then went back inside for an hour. They say the chemical is not harmful to people - it’s some kind of bacteria that only affects the moths - but why take chances?
Each homeowner pays $47 bucks a year, which is a bargain when you consider that the trees are a big part of the investment into the property. On just two acres, we have well over 100 trees over 2 inches in diameter. Here’s a tree inventory I took last year. (We have since lost our oldest tree, a huge red oak over 40 inches in diameter.)
I’d love to get more sleep, but the painters are here early - got to go.
no comment until now
