Summarize the following:
The cut end grains of your fence posts can soak up water more readily than the sides and lead to the posts rotting. Most oil stains contain a protective sealant, but for your ends, you will want some extra water protection. Look for a sealing product such as Anchorseal at your local hardware store for sealing your posts. Using a 2in (5.1cm) brush, apply a light coat of sealer to the tops of your fence posts where you can see the end grain design. It's best to apply sealer on a clear day when there is no rain in the forecast. Don't touch the fence posts where you applied sealer for at least 24 hours to be sure that it's completely dry.

summary: Buy sealer for the end grain of your posts. Apply your sealer to ends of your fence posts with a brush. Allow your sealer to dry for 24 hours.

Take a hose and wet the ground directly around the tree until the soil is damp. This will soften the ground and make digging the tree out easier. It also reduces stress for the tree and keeps some soil attached to its roots. Using a shovel, dig up the topsoil from the roots nearest to the trunk. Continue digging up the topsoil until you reach the approximate length of the tree's root ball. The root ball is the sphere of roots that you will replant in another location. As a general rule, there should be 1012 inches (2530cm) of root ball for every 1 inch (2.5cm) of the tree's diameter. Keep the spade faced away from the tree as you dig. Shape the roots in a circle that will become the tree's root ball. Cut away any large roots that go beyond your mark with pruning shears. If you're planning on transplanting the tree you need to be careful not to remove too many roots. A general rule is for every inch in diameter of the trunk, there needs to be 10"-12" of root ball. Lift the root ball up with your shovel and have another person work a square of burlap beneath the roots. Set the root ball back down and lift it out of the ground by the burlap. Keep the burlap tied around the root ball until you're ready to replant it. Burlap is important because it is biodegradable. It keeps the roots safe and together until you're ready to plant the tree and then decomposes into the soil afterward.

summary: Water the soil surrounding the tree the day before you remove it. Remove the topsoil surrounding the top roots. Dig the roots out with a spade. Dig underneath the root ball and pull it out of the ground.

Since you'll largely be standing still, you need to find an easy pose, at least at first. Exert only a small amount of energy by relying on your bones to hold you up, instead of relying on muscles to keep you in a contorted position. Keep your arms low and close to your body, feet shoulder-width apart, and avoid contorting your torso. Don't force yourself to balance in an uncomfortable position. If you're just starting out, you could even incorporate a chair or the wall of a building into your positions, to help support your body weight. As you become more used to working as a living statue, you'll develop patience, and you'll learn to ignore small distractions from your body, including minor itches or a building sneeze. Although a practiced living statue can hold a single pose for over two hours, a beginner will find it difficult to hold a pose for 15 minutes. You can make gradual movements to switch poses: lower or raise your arms, bend at your waist, straighten your back, or try innovating new positions on your own. Shifting poses frequently will prevent you from developing cramps or falling over. Conversely, sudden and dramatic movements can take your audience by surprise and wow them. By interspersing dramatic arm and torso movements into your living-statue routine, you can give yourself opportunities to move and to further engage the audience. Control your breathing when you're trying to hold a pose for a long period of time. Breathe deeply and slowly into your abdomen, then your chest. As your breaths slow, it will create the illusion of total immobility, which will impress audience members. For some living statues, the experience of standing perfectly still and breathing slowly can begin to feel like meditation. Time can pass quickly in this state, so don't forget to look at your watch from time to time. When a human statue comes to life, it's common for the performer to perform an action or give something away. What you give away doesn't have to be tangible; it can be something as simple as a glance or gesture. However, your action or gesture needs to be meaningful; it should be a moment in which you connect with the human being in front of you and look them in the eye. If you have a talent, use it. For example, you can draw in viewers and surprise audience members by blowing bubbles, creating origami, performing coin tricks, or playing an instrument. If someone leaves money, you can surprise them by performing an action: blow a kiss, tip your hat, or take a dramatic bow.
summary: Find a pose that is easy to maintain. Change your pose often. Breathe deeply and without movement. Choose an action to perform.
