Arbor Day

Have you hugged a tree today?

Arbor Day was established in 1872, and is all about the planting and preserving of trees. The date for Arbor Day varies by state, and you can look up your state at the Arbor Day links below. Texans love their trees. They are precious. SHADE is a precious commodity in this hot, sunny place. True enough, plenty of trees are lost for development, but in some cases if there is a really large and beloved tree, they will attempt to move it rather than cut it down. The pics below represent a common site. Your tree is more important than your fence, so people regularly make adjustments like this for their trees.

That fence with the hole in it is hilarious! I do dig it though.

H.A.D. to you too!
