Once again, I am reminded of how "tiny miracles" (oxymoron) seem to happen unexpectedly. Butch and I have talked about trimming some branches around the place. He wanted to borrow some limb loppers and hasn't been able to locate any. I suggested we buy some, and he thought it would be a waste, no more often than we needed them. And so...
We went for a walk today, together. That doesn't happen often. I had pulled some weeds yesterday and was feeling the results of overdoing it. The sore muscles reminded me to stretch them a bit with a walk. Butch is trying to change his sleep cycle so he was up earlier than usual. So we walked and talked about trees.
As we neared the house a pickup pulled up in front of our house and Butch noted that they were in the tree business. And thinking of his climbing tools he asked them if he would be interested in buying his hooks and he said he would take a look. So a deal was struck and then we started talking trees and trimming. Hooks sold, trees trimmed all for a very reasonable price. I am amazed and eternally grateful every time these serendipitous things take place! And if you take the time to notice they happen frequently!
