Morning,,

I am positive they spray on my plants. Her husband also ripped apart 2 climbing vines I had growing on the fence, I donot know if I showed anyone here pictures of when we built the bog/lotus pond area over there next to thier fence. But it was beautiful and then one day I went out and all my EE's were dying, and the grass was all brown and withered all around the area, vines were ripped out off the ground, and even a pampas grass was dying!! There was no way it happened naturally. I know her crazy husband did it. But since I cannot prove it, there i9s nothing I can do.

That is why were moved the bog garden last year and this year have moved the lotus pond. I am working on replacing all the ee's that died. I guess I should be happy that he did not destroy the lotus, guess he did not know how to do it. sigh.

Shirley, wonder if we could make that trip,, It is a very long way from Alabama though and I think the cost of the trip would be almost as much as the cost of the new fence,, but would be worth it just to meet you and our dear Tubby..
I have never been to Nebraska, and would love to visit. Ralph was saying the other day when he was talking about kicking booty out there for you that he would be glad to work on the farm for you!!. If he was retired we would load ourselves up and come and stay a month or two and get all your projects done with you!!. He is such a sweety!!

Holly>>>Love the picture of your Leland Cypress. I will have to rethink it though. I absolutely cannot wait 5 years to block off those people!! I do have an idea though. On craigslist here there is a company offering all the free pallets you can take. I was thinking, maybe I could just get them, buy the 4x4's to support them and then make my own fence from them??? I could paint the side that faces their yard with several cans of ooops paint from HD that I have, who cares if the color is ugly!!! I will stain my side a nice redwood color!! This may be my solution. What does everyone think????
