Fortunately for me, in the dating arena, being honest about myself to a fault did a great job vetting dates all on its own.

I wouldn’t consider a woman that drops a guy for this reason to be a progressive.

The oak, cherry, birch, and maples will likely outlive my house but will be outlasted by the 2k, 1.2k, 1.5k, 430, and several under 50 lbs boulders.

Many people do not research the plants and trees they plant in their yard.

Sometimes, even when you do the research, you end up planting wisteria that sneaks under the siding, climbs, and pops out the chimney in the space of one season.

Love the stuff and making fall/spring wreathes from the trimming, but you have to watch it closely or be prepared to repair where it goes.
