Re: blue heron > trash trees

Well, it's not my neighborhood; it's about a mile from me.  a better
neighborhood than mine; mine being lined completely with horrible silver
maples.
The Audiologist I work with just bought a house and he can't wait to put in
a cottonwood.  ?I asked, "why?, so your neighbors will hate you?"  No, he
just likes them, likes the fact that they grow so fast, wants a tree to sit
under.  Wants the litter that falls cuz he'd like to put in a wood burning
stove.  glad he's not moving into my neighborhood.

So why do people put in trash trees?  Cuz they're ignorant.
