Watching a house being built
-
I've been wondering how big that live oak in my front yard will get. I actually have four of them, two in front and two in back, in accordance with HOA rules. I worry about the shade and how I'll grow my fruit trees in back, if they get huge. I guess I can prune if necessary. They are majestic, but I don't think they'll play nice with other smaller trees in their shadow.

More than shade, it might depend on which has the deepest roots.
A large oak tree can drink 100 gallons per day. -
@Horace I went ahead and used photoshop to show you what it will look like once they have the roof done.

In the targeted person community, we call those "antenna house caps". The FBI won't stop me from speaking out against bigotry and other forms of oppression though. They have no idea who they are dealing with - I will simply not be silenced. Expect more justice from my posts here, not less, as the surveillance increases.

Any good mushrooms on the property? If the Egyptians were still around they would've at least finished the pointy top of the house.

Indeed. We've lost so much from the ancient ways. It's sad. But at least there's no plumbing, thus the need for the outhouse. That allows for a more spiritual connection to the traditional ways of living.

Did you already pick your trees? Most of those in the list drop nuts, which you don’t want. I’d go for the redbuds.

They were planted by the builder. We got live oaks, two in front and two in back. And one bottlebrush tree, which we suspect might be dead. It is showing no signs of life since the deep freeze over the holidays.
