He was a Marine & when they lived on the base I know they must have had similar encounters---but I'm not sure if any of them involved Charlie Brown Christmas trees. I am a huge environmentalist, yet sadly, I cannot keep any house plant alive. I either over water or forget about the thing and it bites the dust. I even killed a cactus. How terrible is that? Good luck with those new plants.

Since I don't want you to be unfairly charged - here's what you need to do.<br /><br />Cover that tree in cayenne pepper. The antelope will take one bite and you'll never see him again. Then drag your waterhose down there and let water drip (the key word here is DRIP) all night, every night for about a week or so. After that you may only have to water it every other day or so. That should do the trick.Gigihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05467164195744234746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5910185897876102936.post-48503101771826842272010-07-16T16:12:17.678-06:002010-07-16T16:12:17.678-06:00You have antelopes?

Always annoyed my mom and when she moved near enough to me she made me plant some flowers...that is probably the last time I ever did. My excuse is that we don't get sun until 2 pm in the yard. Then it is burning hot. Also I hate to water plants. My dream is to have a landscaped yard and a full time gardner!!!!!
