Squirrels stole all 150 acorns Mom planted. My brother and I tried to console her by saying she will soon see dozens of live oaks sprouting in my sister’s yard.
Frankly I don’t know how to count that in the seedlings tally.
On the drive back from the Symposium I will look for more acorns for her. Live and learn.
