I have not forgotten your Lucerne mulch, Daniel! We just have an awful lot
of storm debris to get rid of. The city-contracted chipper-shredder just
left. I and my neighbors will send a truck to get some of the product this
spring. Not the best, but if you had seen the mess after the ice storm--
need to get rid of it somehow. Probably what we are buying now is leftover
from 1997's Hurricane Fran and interim storms.
