Rob's Tree!!

I went to Humboldt today and when I got home and pulled into the driveway I noticed immediately that we had Rob's tree!  This evergreen tree is one that nephew, Rob, planted several years ago on their property here.  Glenn had been telling us to get it for quite a while, but recently he sold the lot that it was on so we made arrangements to have it moved this spring and today was the day.  It looks nice at our house!  We hope it will survive the move so Rob can see it growing here for years to come.  Some of the trees we planted last year in our grove are not looking too good.  See fourth picture.

Not looking good.

Our trees had a rough summer with the drought.  

Our rhubarb is coming up nicely and so are the chives.  

It's still too wet to plant . . . but the sun is shining today and soil temps are warm enough.

this bunch is on the north side of the house - I can use it this year!
