A Simple Pop Hole


Digging in hedges with big trees and a lot of push-log piles is always a chance for trouble, but none of that today.

Dogs located and it sounded deep. Good news —- it wasn’t. Just 1 foot, but straight under a big trunk. Sound can be funny in rock and root.

Still no problem, as the locator gave me a good fix through a narrow stretch of rocky soil between the roots. Turned out to be a quick pop-hole dig on a mid-sized possum. As Georges Peppard used to say: “I love it when a plan comes together.”

The possum was lifted up the tree, but Moxie still had plans.
