Tree work
So the bigger almond tree was cut down today. The guys had to climb up and use guywires and stuff.
It's like having a pet put down. I loved that tree, but I could not take care of it and it was too close to the property line, so it developed terminal problems. And now is the time to take it down, while I can afford it.
I have a bucket of almonds from it. The only time I got that many from it. They're green enough to be eaten the Persian way.
The other almond tree looks paltry, diminshed and sad without the big one. The tree guy says it will fill out and thrive once it gets over the shock.
Metaphors everywhere.
