A societal need, draining the dragon in all the parks.
A societal need, draining the dragon in all the parks. I have been driving a huge water tanker truck, watering all city trees that have been planted within years throughout the city, especially in all the city parks. Easy work, but needed, as these first years the trees are trying establish their root structures. We have so many young trees, that we got approved daily overtime. So I have been working even more hours every day. Nice , but as I am pretty much constantly driving, I rarely have the opportunity get on my phone any real length of time. Water water water, 3 5 thousand gallons a day, a normal day. I guess closer 5 7 thousand gallons these overtime days. Even in the rain. I guess we silly, watering trees in the rain. The rain never seems last long enough. Easy check, we shove a shovel into the ground, the rain soaks in the top half an inch. It takes time to soak in. Watering, we do not have time, so we deluge the tree, because we make dirt saucers when we planted them. The saucers hold the water around the tree, like a bowl. From our efforts, a lot of our young trees are able to grow to maturity, my forestry crew needs trim or remove them. Do you ever have do stuff that initially looks silly, but is very useful or needed? Visit my blog if you want to at thax013 and thank you very much! |

You mean like having a blog here? We were downtown recently and Mrs C commented on all the lovely planters along Douglas and wondered how they're kept watered. Cant Get Away With Anything I Guess I Missed the Memo Doing my Own Thing, on HNW [post 3312759] My Private Blog - Tell Me ALL Your Secrets
