You Learn Something New Every Day

So, the new thing I learned yesterday was that tree roots continue to grow for about 7 years after the tree itself has been cut down. Who knew?

I learned this from the plumber who had just spent 3 1/2 hours running 144 feet of snake down the main drain in our basement (which had begun backing up nasty smelling water). He brought out a TON of tree roots and miscellaneous gunk.
