Afterthought. I've got abut 20; the rest is grassland. For a while, I was planting a lot, because some friends were selling seedlings in front of the post office every year; 10 cents-two bits each, bundles of 25, which they bought from one of the timber company nurseries. Now I only do a few a year. I figure I'll get more active after I retire. Biggest problem is summer water for the first few years. I pick up seeds and plant them every year. Need to put in a lot of willow clippings along the creek. I've stalled this for l0 years. My biggest problem is that I have had several large doug firs die in the last 2 years. Up to maybe 18 inch dia. Something is getting them around here. Don't think it is sudden oak death; there hae been a variety of enemies attacking them. Side effect of GW? Who knows? Takes a lot of young trees to replace a 50 year old fir. (Watching some deer graze)
