Well, it looks like neither is harmful to the tree.

I don't get why it says 'it's too late to spray when you see the gall... Why not just cut the thing off - at least all the ones you can reach?

I'll be, g'nad! Learn somethin' new ever day.

Hey, y'all gettin' rain? We got a bit here, but north Tulsa got hammered pretty hard, apparently. We were up there at OSU-Tulsa (picking up Steve's cap, gown and hood) when it started getting REALLY black outside. We made a mad dash home and it went just north of us...literally chased to a mile from our house. The dust cloud was incredible...it looked like a horror movie! Absolutely black waves of dust that you could hardly see through.

More rain is coming...Lord knows we need it in a bad way.

Just sent an e-mail about a washer and dryer...they look a little old, but not terribly so.

It's sad, but one reason I really, really want one is so I can stick stuff in the dryer to de-wrinkle it if need be in the mornings. Bit overkill, but it's great for lazy folkses like me. ;-)

Everyone needs a washer dryer... Hopefully it's a good set and available. How much?
