I went out this morning to check the girls, found the one in the shelter to be leaning way over. It was pretty windy last night, so I thought that must have pushed it over... nope. Some rippers pulled it over so that they could literally rip off three main branches.
The first year I had no worms, once they found us they've been back every year. I suspect rippers are the same way. I'm not going to shoot them, I'm not going to make my backyard into a high security zone, I'm just going to call it a day. Stick a fork in it, I'm done growing outdoors.
It's funny, naively I thought that maybe because I live 100 yards from a police station, I would be less likely to be robbed. No sir.
