I feel so calm and peaceful when they are around. I still lie on the grass sometimes, and just look up between their leaves and branches.<br /><br />Joyce Kilmer was right when she said "I think that I shall never see a poem lovely as a tree."<br /><br />When we bought our house 7 1/2 years ago, I wouldn't even consider a neighborhood that wasn't rich with Texas oaks and elm trees. When I am upstairs and look out the 2nd story windows, it's like being in a tree house with the boughs within reach. Sometimes I see squirrels scurrying about at eye level. We spotted one the other day, big and pregnant, resting in the crook of a y shaped branch, right by her nest.Judy Williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05081035351814381283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4926759868384604174.post-32925588549449291832010-06-11T01:52:37.415-07:002010-06-11T01:52:37.415-07:00Lovely framed pathway, Laurie.
