Where the Wild Things Are
We have a 100 year old catawba tree right next to our house. I love the tree, but it's pretty old for one of these.
I know they have a reputation for getting hollow too, but today I was picking at a rotten spot at the base, and ended up going through:
I'm thinking it might make a nice shop:
Lots of head room:
Well, I guess I'm going to have to do something about that tree. Maybe towards the end of the summer, as I can't imagine how hot the house will get without it (we don't use AC). I will immediately plant another, but even though they are fast growing it will be quite a few years until it provides any shade.
