Re: woes

One year our garden club donated dogwood trees to the town. The three planted along the highway were stolen the night they were planted -- just snatched right out of the ground. I know new developments have a terrible problem with the theft of landscape materials. They have a problem of disappearing appliances from inside unoccupied homes, too. I think it's just more evidence of the invasion of modern day Vandals.
