I think you're lucky. Last night San Diego County had it's first measurable
rain in SIX MONTHS ! Only half an inch. Last year we only had 5 inches all year. |

We had a storm through here a number of years ago that took down some trees. My wife called me at work to tell me that one had blown down. I don't know what I was supposed to do about it, but while she was on the phone I got the play by play... there goes another, and another, and another ...... 5 trees in less than 10 minutes. I wish one of them had been the ratty old weeping willow that I had been trying to kill. I cam home to a back yard full of fallen trees. They were all Manitoba Maples aka weed trees, easy to cut and split, but not much better for firewood than willow. Only one of the Manitoba Maples was left, and that was the one that had been planted in a hole in my patio. The patio was getting in rough shape and I wanted to cut down the tree and redo the concrete patio. The wife did not want the tree cut down because it was out only shade tree. I didn't want to go to all the work and expense of doing the patio just to have the tree uproot in a storm and rip up half the patio. I lost that one. We ended up doing the patio around the old tree. Sure enough, the next year the tree was uprooted in a wind storm. Luckily, it went in such a way that it only ripped up the roots on one side and snapped the rest of the trunk below ground level and did not damage the concrete. So there we were without any shade tree by the patio. If we had cut down that ugly tree when I had wanted to we would have had a decent tree by now. As it is I have a transplanted Locust that after 4 years of good growth decided that it's trunk was not strong enough to support its branches and is is sagging to one side and ripping itself apart. Lucky for me that my neighbour is in the nursery and gives me free trees when he can't sell them all. |
