Well, we got up yesterday morning to find that elk had roamed through our property and munched on one of the two cottonwood trees we had put in our side yard. They also munched on the three small bushes we had planted. So.....off to the nursery to get another cottonwood tree today. Our landscaper is too busy to plant it so Steve and I will do it tomorrow. We think the bushes will probably survive (hopefully). You'll see one picture has boxes covering the one cottonwood they didn't get...but Steve will put cages around both trees to stop the elk and deer from eating them. We may have to put cages around the bushes, too! Ah, don't you just love living in the country....it's always something. Even though we have been here 21 months, we are still learning! Enjoy the pictures below!! Put your cursor over the picture to see my comments.
