If you don’t see new leaves the limb is dead and will snap in a strong wind. After cleaning up the camphor tree that attacked my car, we cut down an oak limb about 10 inches in diameter that had no leaves and was hanging over the driveway. There were smaller limbs in the 2 to 3 inch range on my roof that had snapped off during the storms.

The really cut down on AC costs, but they levy their own cost.

We haven’t haven’t had any voting fraud in Florida other than some minor Republican games , but they had to pass new voting restrictions to suck up to Donald of Toad Hall. They have finished for the year, but they do a lot of damage in the 60 days the leg is in session. 😈

as for the new congressional district we’re going to get… i was secretly hoping that trump’s anti-everybody census would undercount our residents enough that we’d lose a few of those, and maybe choke off (a bit) our pipeline of sending idiots to washington.

yeah, the weather has been a bit scarier than usual here, and every little storm that passes through leaves another round of giant, rotted-out oak trees cut up and sitting out at the curb. i figure it’s only a matter of time before one of them lands on my car and i just hope i’m not there when it happens.

when i first moved here, after spending my childhood in various parts of the southwest, i didn’t like being closed in by all the trees. eventually i grew to love them, especially the old, ginormous, twisted and gnarly oaks, but i tell ya, this spring i’ve come to look on my old friends the trees with a jaundiced eye again.
