We stopped at a grocery after eating fish and chips at a local brewpub, and while cruising the aisles a young black woman walked up and said "How are you?" I recognized her as one who's privy we had dug last winter and I started to panic. Uh-oh, I was thinking, what did we screw up? Not to worry, she was still happy to have invited us to dig after I knocked on her door. She said that the peach tree we moved was fine and that her yard looked very nice after were were done. That kinda made my day.
I recall another similar incident a dozen years back when the encounter went the other way. This time it was an attorney whose pit we dug and he claimed that I caused his fence to lean over. I checked it out and the fence had rotted 10' from where the pit was. I went ahead and replaced the bad post and he was cool.
You just never know what folks are thinking after the dig is long over.
