Go ahead and say it, this looks trashy! But without a truck, you really gotta improvise, you know? So, we had 5 cottonless cottonwood trees in our little back yard. We decided to remove one cuz they were growing SO fast. Plus, we didn't want the yard to get too crowded. So dug up the one that wasn't quite like the others, in a row. I couldn't just kill it, I would have felt really bad doing something like that.
So I called my brother Micah and he said that he liked to hug trees, and that they would love to have it (actually, they don't really hug trees, but they did want it). So, being McGuyver Jr. that I am, I decided that I didn't want to call around to find a truck, or wait to find someone with better tree transporter capabilities. So, I improvised. I've heard that Subaru's are great for doing things that have to do with trees. I'm not sure that transporting them is one of those things, but it worked I guess.
Anyway, I dug up the tree, dragged it to the front yard, pulled the car around, looked the other way when any neighbors drove by, and cruised over to American Fork to plant the tree at my brothers house. May it grow and prosper.
