The City of Waukesha Park and Recreation Department came by last week and added a little beauty to our downtown where beauty was needed.
If you remember from my last blog, one of the trees at the corner of Maple and Main Street met with a mysterious fate at the end of the summer.
But with the help of seven strong men and a fleet of trucks, we now have a healthy little sapling where there was once only a stump.
It doesn’t quite have the same stature as its predecessor (I saw Charlie Brown down here on Saturday placing a Christmas bulb on it),
but a few gallons of Miracle Grow and it should catch up to the neighboring foliage in no time.
I suppose planting anything larger would result in pulling up half the sidewalk, and I am not sure that would make good fiscal sense.
My thanks go out to the Park and Rec Department for getting a new tree in there so quickly. The neighbors appreciate it as well.
