Had my ride all planned out. The route planned checked the weather, looked over the trike for any issues, topped off the fuel and was ready to go on New Year’s day, the next morning. Then it happened!
Just after the sun set a UPS driver pulled into my driveway. What could this possibly be I asked myself..
The driver began his task and started unloading five very large cardboard boxes. Oh my, what did she order now I asked myself.
In those boxes were some Japanese Holly tress and the instructions said to open the boxes ASAP to allow the trees to breathe fresh air and to plant ASAP. I opened the boxes up but it was too dark to start this project then.
So the January 1st ride would have to wait till that was done. Went out early to get started but had to wait a while for guidance on precisely where the trees were to be placed. Didn’t want to dig more holes than absolutely necessary. Guidance and supervision was provided and the task was accomplished (kind of). Upon completion of this adventure, it was determined that a couple more Holly Bushes were needed to fill in the openings just below the windows of my shop. Bushes would look very similar to the Holly trees now placed in the dirt.
It’s now mid-afternoon and my back and knees are killing me. So I came back into the house to rest up some before hitting the road for some wind therapy.
Oh wait, “we” still need to take the icicle lights and Christmas decorations down out side.
Guess what happened to my New Years Day ride…….
