Tuesday, 8:30 AM. 64 degrees, wind NW, light. The channel is calm, the sky blue but hazy. The barometer predicts sunshine.
The trip to Northland Nursery in Rhinelander was an all day affair, everything going well and plants arriving in good shape. We had some clouds and a few showers, which made driving and transporting the plants much easier. It was not all fun and games, however, as loading and unloading was heavy work. I had the camera along but got otherwise involved and took no photos. I spotted a spruce grouse on the side of the road on Hwy 51 south of Hurley, but by the time I slowed down it was long gone. Northwoods is a good sized, very well run wholesale nursery, one of the very few within a days drive from Bayfield. They propagate all their own pants and are located in Zone 3, so everything should be super hardy. The trees and shrubs are all in place at the wall job site and we will plant and finish up on Thursday. No time for anything else just now.
