Weeping for Trees
Jun. 21st, 2010 08:26 amMy neighbor is taking down all FOUR of the giant douglas firs that grace his property, now our little acre and part of the mobile home park behind us will be the only groves left of what was once a small forest of them. Old timers have told us of how they used to come hunt in 'those woods' in their youth, and of the filbert orchard and sheep pasturage that are now all subdivisions. They are all healthy 120ft. dougs, I feel as if the innocent are being executed, and for no reason other than as he's gotten older he wants more sunlight. :-(
