Say, did you ever have one of those days when everything seemed to work
out right?  I was just going to have to deal with this half dead oak
tree at the edge of this garden closest to the parking lot, it's covered
with some kind of scale insects and that's only the beginning of what's
wrong with it.

Then all of the sudden a giant tractor trailer comes along and BOOM !!!
No more tree!  And now their insurance company is going to buy me a nice
new replacement for that old sick half dead bug infested mess!

Only hopefully nobody at the trucking company is on this list.  I think
I'm going to alter part of my signature to cover my tracks.  And if you
are reading, it wasn't completely dead, it was only mostly dead and that
means partly alive and still would have been there if you hadn't hit it
so I think you still owe me a new tree and that's final.

Then, later, without really trying I won "best in show" at the Atlanta
Garden and Patio Show for an exhibit I did.  since at the time I thought
it was not eligible for the judged competition, I didn't put all that
much effort into it, so it was an easy win, which is nice.

P.S.  Also totally random, the other day I had some disabled kids coming
to visit a garden and I had to go over to the house next door and ask
them to please stop shooting while the kids were there.  They were
really nice about it, I think they are used to me bringing kids to the
garden.
