Where this you see there used to be, a beautiful big green oak tree! I'm not a "tree hugger", I'm just not a fan of cutting trees. This big old oak tree has been here for longer than most of us. It should have been cut when we built the house but no one wanted to do it. Then, along came the garden and the orchard and they began to flourish. The poor blueberries were leaning to the north for sun because the tree was shading them out. I finally caved--my head knew it had to go but my heart was fighting it.
This is the view from the upstairs window this morning.
The sun can now get to the garden and the blueberries and raspberries will be happy and all is well on Cotton Branch!!
