Millie and Walter were right about what was going on in yesterday's pictures... the trees shown are White Ash. These are Louisville Slugger's "trees of choice" to produce wood to make baseball bats. They are also the Emerald Ash Borer's "tree of choice" for noms. They like them so much they'll nom on the tree until it dies. We have ten on our property.... hopefully those ten will be growing for a long time, and never a party buffet for Borers.
Say a prayer, send some good thoughts, for Lily Belle and Muffin as they take their humans, on a two day car ride, back home today.
Wordless Wednesday comes to you from Newby, who doesn't likes his mom to go outside mowing.** The four a.m. posting comes from my nose, which also doesn't like me outside mowing, but for different reasons.
**Not the best pictures of Newbs, but you get the gist of what he is like the rest of the day.

Thanks for the shout out! Almost to Georgia already. Muffin sound asleep. Me, well I'm NOT liking this ride one bit. Wish my Newby was here to comfort me.

Well Squirrel SNOT.... we were SURE it was gonna be a Sassafras Tree.
wE thought it was a walnut tree, but we knew we would probably be wrong.....we told them to drive safe, so hopefully they will listen to us.

We will take a bow. Just wish we could afford to tread our ash trees.
Millie & Walter
That was interesting to know. Have a terrific Thursday.
Best wishes Molly
