The catalogues have arrived and they are wait- ing on my coffee table. I can't look at them because every time we have a rain- free day, we are working on our downed limbs and trees in the creek lined part of our drive. I am too tired to think about my garden. We are in tree cleanup triage mode. It has required chains and en- gineering, energy and fo- cus with careful use of the chainsaw. My husband and I are very experienced at cleaning up damaged trees. We survived 2 horren- dous ice storms in the Mid- west. The Nebraska storm required that we move the family and pets to a mo- tel for 10 days as we lost power as well. The ice storm in Missouri involved 4" of ice with no power for a week. Listening to the trees snap and drop — sounds like fireworks and guns — from the woods all around our home day and night was fairly traumatic. We did not expect to have damage to the trees out here west of Red Bluff. A few oaks have toppled, a few branches fell from high winds. But we were shocked to discover the extent of the damage to certain green leafed trees by such a small amount of wet snow that lingered for 2 days. So these trees that are consuming our free time became a sub- ject of interest. These trees succumbed to the weight of snow in large numbers. Be- ing trees that are nearly as wide as tall, they have branches which extend nearly horizontally. Many of those limbs fell. The fo- liage is green year round, the leaves have tiny stick- ers on the edges and they feel like leather. The acorns are about an inch long and slender but the leaves are not shaped like oaks we have known. Several of the trees which have multiple trunks from the ground fell completely. The trees are often infested with ants. We will have enough fire- wood for several winters at least. Some trees are just too large for us to tackle until they dry out. So what are these strange but fragile trees? I researched the internet to attempt to identify the va- riety but found it was con- fusing. So I consulted with a Cal Fire forester with a photo to be certain. These trees which line the creek bed along our drive are in- terior live oaks — species: Quercus wislizenii. They tend to grow below 2,000' elevation and can be found in many parts of Califor- nia and actually extend into Baja Mexico. These trees were first noticed by John C. Fremont in 1844 who was understandably thrilled to see evergreen oak trees in the foothills and valley after months of crossing the snowy barren landscapes to the east. Interior live oaks have depressions created by scar tissue at branch breaks which collect water in the spring. The oak tree mos- quitoes — thank you mos- quito vector sprayer — and the ants naturally adore these trees. These trees can live 150-200 years, sprout mostly from the stumps, which could be generations older, and partially from the acorns and reach 30' to 75'. The trees do not with- stand heavy wet snow or harsh winters because the leaves and bark retain wa- ter. Fortunately, these oaks make great firewood but are not useful for lumber. As with all matters, we did not fully appreci- ate the shape and beauty of these trees until we needed to trim and repair the damaged parts. I sug- gest you take a close look at the mature interior live oaks- especially those with one trunk- they really are amazing. We welcome anyone in- terested in gardening to our monthly meeting at 12:30 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 28 in the Red Bluff Com- munity Center, 1500 S. Jackson St. Our program will be presented by Tom Shoults of the Plow Share Project, which oversees gardens at 16 schools in Te- hama County.

RETIRED TEACHERS Mount Lassen Division 9 general meeting set Accordingtothemonthly report of the local office of the U. S. weather bureau, there were practically three inches of rainfall at Red Bluff during the month of January, or one inch below normal. This brings the to- tal up to 10 inches. This makes a deficiency of 3 inches. However, there have been several seasons in the past which have had less rainfall up to February 1st than the present season. There have been several Januaries with less rainfall than last month, but Janu- ary 1917 had 24 consecutive days without rainfall, a re- cord-breaker. — Feb. 2, 1917 100 YEARS AGO... 24 consecutive rainless days CALIC#778199 GERBER 385-1153 HINKLE ROOFING & CONSTRUCTION, INC Gold Exchange 413WalnutStreet 530-528-8000 Sat.-Mon. 10am-4pm • Tues-Fri 10am-5:30pm www.redbluffgoldexchange.com Valentine'sNight Valentine's Day Will You Marry Me? www.gummsoptical.com (530) 527-2510 1-800-481-LENS (5367) 910MainSt.,SuiteC,RedBluff Quality•Service Style Bring your Eyeglass prescription to us.
