Oak Trees


The kids helped me collect buckets of acorns last fall and plant them throughout the lawn. We planted hundreds. A few days ago we noticed they were coming up. About a dozen survived, just enough to give the lawn a nicely spaced out blanket of shade that we'll be able to enjoy in 50 years. They are so short right now we had to flag them so we wouldn't mow over them. They aren't actually as tall as the grass but we don't want to drive the tires over them.
