ODE To A TREE (Arbor Day!)
Everyone, let us all put aside this squalid bickering that has infested this froup as of late...all this fighting is childish and energy - wasting...
It is ARBOR DAY, when we honor our FRIENDS the TREES...they never argue or fight or war with each other, they are stolid and stalwart and upright...they ask for NOTHING...could anything be more BLESSED than to be a TREE...a grand SEQUOIA...a hardy OAK...a loverly GINKGO...a APPLE, PEACH, or CHERRY tree...??? Remember, kids, it takes JUST as much energy to be HAPPY as it does to be negative...happiness ALWAYS yields better results...on yer tombstone do you want inscribed, "I Died Old, Bitter, and Stupid", or "I Died HAPPY :-) "...so go out and say THANK YOU to a TREE today...!!! Anyways, here is a lil' tribute to our friends the trees: "I am a large PLANT that can make all yer dreams come true.....I can be the Grand Piano in yer living room......I am the House that you live in........I am the handle on yer Broom and the Guitar you love to play.......I am the Paper you read or write on and I can provide your Kids a College Education or buy you a new Car......I can be made into Gasoline or be simple Firewood for a pleasant Family Evening.....I can be farmed like Wheat or Corn.......If you cut me down and use me, another Tree will grow in a short time to take my place.....I am one of the Resources that Man has available for him to use and I will be around FOREVER because Man has a LOT of uses for me......" -- Best Greg |

This weekend I am visiting a local Shakespeare Garden, a small local park that already has some blooms (a few weeks on it will turn into a lovely rose garden), and just generally perambulating about enjoying nature's bounty....we've had a cold and even snowy April, time to get out. And if you could be a tree, what sort of tree would you wish to be...??? ;-) -- Best Greg |

I have several. But White oaks are the giants. They have the most palatable acorns. If you are starving in a forest, and you know what a white oak looks like, you will be drawn to them, much like deer. Some species of oaks produce bitter acorns. |

We have several species of both white and red , plus hickory , wild cherry , red maple , and others .

I've got a large stand of shagbark hickory in the hedgerow between two fields, about a hundred trees, some about 100' tall. They are on my back property line, when I was putting up No Trespassing signs it was near impossible to drive in a nail. |

I think a Dawn Redwood is far nicer, and has been around a lot longer. I'd rather be an Acer Griseum, much more handsome, and the girls like to touch and fondle. A sycamore is lovely too, if you have the space, made for tree huggers, and the ladies are mesmorized by its balls. |

I'm a Pacific Northwest person who was transplanted here almost too long ago to remember. Cheri |

Bruce is obviously of the East LA ilk, he can't afford to LOOK at Incline Village, in CA the snow belts are the most desireable areas. Same in NY, given a choice peeps would much prefer the northern Catskills over NYC. Most of NYC is crime infested slums, on par with E. LA and Shytown's slums. Obviously Bruce prefers to live in Drive-By territory.... what an unimformed putz. |

That's 7 degrees in international UOM. It does get that cold and colder here, but only in winter at night. People tend to stay inside then :) |

In Tasmania it was often 5 degrees (41F) in the living room when we got up. I now find it getting chilly under 24 degrees (75F). |

We just got here (Florida) this morning. We will be picking out cabinets, tile, counter top, etc. Next trip should be the last one. It is amazing how it has worked for my wife, one big reason for the move. She feels better, looks better, walks more. No more stairs too. http://www.nealcommunities.com/home-...eaf/liberty-2/ |
