RE: blue jay bathing lesson NOW Cedar

A neighbor used large cedar "cookies" as stepping "stones" in her yard.  The
are very useful.

 If it's not yet been turned into mulch, ask the tree guy to cut lots of
tree "cookies"  for you.  These are discs sliced across the tree. You can
use them for an amazing number of things- table tops, stepping "stones" ,
wall plaques, etc. You can also have them leave a stump at a convenient
height for use as a bird feeder, planter base, or solar lamp stand. It will
last for a long time.
