Tree Planting

         Tree planting was really difficult espically because we had to dig in mud in the cold wet rain and top of that I wasn't really prepared but luckily I had a change of clothes for after. Well for the actually planting there was a lot of plants that the city office had provided us with and we all had to plant 3 plants each. Most of us really didn't know the process of the tree planting so a women from the city office a gave our class a demo. The procedure is you dig a deep hole but that that deep just enough that you can fit the whole plant, then you take off the stem stuff from the dirt part of the plant, then you place the plant in the hole and cover the dirt on the bottom and top of the plant and then your done. One benefit I got out of this tree planting experience is that now I know how the procedure if my family or anybody else I know dosen't know the full procedure I can show it and explain it too them. This was a great experience because getting my hands dirty and feeling the soil of our city feels awesome and knowing that I helped our city in some way also feels great. Next time to improve I can bring a raincoat and gun boots and avoid getting the muddiest in the class. I would say this was a bittersweet time.
