Last evening, Mamie, Igor, Bubby and Pi came over to dig holes and plant the 2 mock orange bushes I had purchased on the last nursery run with Mamie. Neither GolfGuy nor I are in the physical shape needed to deal with our rocks and hard ground.
Igor dug. Mamie de-potted and situated. Bubby and Pi mixed dirt and compost and filled in the holes. GolfGuy and I supervised. All went well until the last little bit of watering when Bubby and Pi nearly came to blows over manning the nozzle. Mamie took charge in her best teacher voice and manner and soon had the situation well in hand.
There ARE advantages to playing the old and decrepit card on occasion.

I knew we were being "played"!!! Mr. Mamie (that should be his name) wished we had taken pix.
