Lew's place is truly a show stopper for sure. Beautiful!

We live in stone county and it is aptly named.

I learned that the tap roots of the trees run along the surface due to the rocks and if you run over them with heavy equipment it can destroy the trees. When I transplanted the maple after it had been planted for three years, sure enough the tap root was about 8 feet long running across the surface so I just dug a similar ditch and placed it in it. It has done well, weird.
