John, Darrol and Blane move the tree off the truck
John, Darrel and Curtis move the tree to the shade structure.
The tree was placed in the shade until planting (Monday, April 2,
2007).
The tree was too tall to fit under the shade structure without laying it on
its side.
The trunk is protected from damage by a roll of shade cloth placed between
the trunk and the
cinder block it is resting against.
