Jeff--

there was a lot more to tell with all this WS dig...like, I was the other worker...
Me--the little old lady....Just the two of us...

Paul had to move the van all the way to the bottom of my driveway
as it slopes downward more. THEN we put the 2x4's to it to drag--push--pull--lift
that massive root ball into the van. It was extremely difficult.

We ended up rolling the dug up root-ball down the driveway to the van.
Lost a lot of the soil in this process..made it a bit lighter...

Then, Paul's Van went dead--and I had to drive around and give him a hot-shot.

This is the funny part---WHY did Paul have to trim the whole top of the shrub back?
I SOOO complained about that!
Quote: I don;t want to attract any unnecessary attention driving back--as the
registration on this van is expired....Haaa..haa...

Now--the most unbelievable thing--Paul drove to his parent's house and single-handedly
unloaded that monster AND--planted it--all in the same day!!!

No comments needed.....end of story....
