Trees

As I posted yesterday, I got to do anything I wanted for Mother's Day so I choose a walk at the arboretum. I love the arboretum. I love that it's close, I love that we can bring the dogs, I love the open spaces, and I love the trees. Ever since I took forestry at Sewanee, I have become attached to trees. My favorite tree is called liriodendron tulipifera (we had to memorize the Latin name) or yellow poplar.


Even better than trees are David and Archer playing on trees. Here are some pictures from the arboretum yesterday.





This is a Chinese tree that is in the rose family. I have forgotten the exact name, but isn't it cool?!
