Trees
are patient. Trees go and grow wherever there is food, water, and
light. Trees do not care what year, decade, century or millennia it is.

We were there twice recently. Yosemite Park
This would be quite a tour to take. Wish we could see these miracles of creation in life.
I was a 8-yr old tree climber. Dad kept tearing down our boards nailed to a monstrous maple. We gave up, but my 9 yr old brother Robert, 5 yr old Bill, and 3 yr old Mary grabbed an ax and we went down to the creek to cut down trees and make a cabin.
Now I have to take the next two weeks carefully. Sigh. Please keep commenting. It means a lot to me.
these are absolutely AMAZING!!! all of them, we have those fig trees every where here in central Florida, the are fatastic
ReplyDeleteLove the tree tour. You must see somethings 'in person', the giant trees of California/West Coast one must see up close to appreciate the actual size. It puts one in AWE, and makes you realize how small our big oaks are in comparison...
ReplyDeleteTake care of that hand,.,,,,
Sherry & jack backhere onthe first coast...
What magnificent trees! The rainbow eucalyptus is new to me so I looked it up. Now I am considering having one for myself.
ReplyDeleteAmazing! This is all new to me, and now I'm wanting to learn more.
ReplyDeleteTrees are awe inspiring and amazing. And often very beautiful. Good luck in the next two weeks.
ReplyDeleteBut the longer you're careful, the more likely you are to mend, right?
ReplyDeleteSuch a wonderful collection of trees.
ReplyDeleteMake sure you take the next two weeks carefully, my good wishes.
All the best Jan
Trees are so resilient and determined to grow, they'll spring up wherever there is a place for a seed to set roots.
ReplyDeleteI wish I could have that Eucalyptus tree! Wouldn't that look amazing! Such beautiful trees. I've never been to Yosemite but I sure would love to put it on the "to go" list! I hope you continue to heal and be back to blogging when it's time and safe for you. Take care Susan!
