We replanted a few dead pear trees. This became a whole family effort. Earlier in the year, Rick cut down several trees, then he borrowed a neighbor's excavator and pulled the stumps out. We were asked to pick up the roots, and then we helped with the planting. Picture description: #1 stretching the measuring tape, so the tree is centered in a straight line with the other trees. #2 Peter testing out the dirt. #3 Michelle helping with the root removal, playing air guitar? #4 Current size of our pears. #5 The view from our orchard #6 ground after tree was removed, with roots for us to pick up #7 looking down a row. #8 Cristine sampling the snacks.

What a project! I love the pictures - your camera takes some great shots.
The picture of Peter in the dirt is my favorite.
Seeing Mt. Hood makes me homesick. Sigh!
I think that having the whole family work/play together is great! What fun - your kids will have good memories. Your pictures are super. What a beautiful view you have from your orchard. Love ya, mom
We usually have a good time working together. This weekend we're going to start our irrigation. Woo Hoo sprinkler changing time.
