Trees are Only Fun in Lord of the Rings

Holy Cow, I'm going to Ireland in one day! I sorta have my stuff packed, I found my passport, and I have no idea what any of the other travel plans are. I know we are staying in a building, the building is in Ireland, and that Ireland has pubs. I guess thats all that really matters...

But anyways, so the last couple days were pretty eventful. I woke up super early to go to Decatur to pick up some new trees, because the trees they sold us were very dead. Like, Fievel Goes West tumbleweed in the desert kind of dead. 

Now, me and Decatur already had a bad track record. The first time I went there, it turned into a terrible fiasco, where i ended up in anderson, which is a good 2 hours away, then ended up in this sketchy nursery, that looked like something terrifying out of a video game, so I could pick up these 3 trees. 


What is the status of those 3? 2 were KIA'd by dirt and water and nutrients, which totally makes sense.... the other, is still alive, but not the kind of tree we ordered. Like, it has white blossoms and the trees were supposed to have like, red, or something. I digress.

Anyways, we drive an hour to go get these trees, and the dude goes, "nobody dug your trees out. they aren't ready." Wrong. Not OK. So my mom goes, "can you deliver them?" "Yes.        But there's a delivery charge." "I want my money back." Then I took the trees out of the car, and left them in the middle of their road. We then binge ate Taco Bell.

Dear Heller Nursery in Decatur, Indiana: 
You can die, just like your stupid dead trees.
