    My trees, well actually I don't have any trees, they belong to themselves, seem a little wooden lately.

    The wise and gentle guardians of our world, wherever I need a moment of nurturing, it is too the trees I go.......

    I think someone is very happy today, and I'm no talking about the trees Cloudia. Fantabulous sunset in the last shot.

    When we are at our home at Lake Tahoe the tall pines stand stately next to my windows and I love it. I can feel their energy.

    I think the tree is smiling because he looks like he was lobotomized

    I'm with Mr. Gramlich -- I saw the orange blob of baldness before I saw the face you figured in. My trees have all pooped their leaves on the ground, and the snow is coming to spit on them. But my hibiscus canes are all trimmed and tucked in for the real winter. They know I love them ('cause I talk to them,) and come around every May. Just how often do you talk to all those trees?

    Mostly wearing Oranges and Lemons, later used in my black tea, since they grow in our garden.

    Please have a good Tuesday.

    My trees?

    Well they better be where I saw them last. I hold the insane idea sometimes that they sneak off to a nearby bar, or that might be me, I get confused sometimes.

    Our trees are bare now. They stand stark naked waiting for the first snow now. Last year we had a thick layer of snow at this date.Now the sun is shining after a week of stormy winds and rain.
    I wish you a very nice week.

    spending a good part of my morning with you Cloudia, thank you for the mini history lesson, it was wonderful. enjoyed your video as well as the tv clip.

    now for the tree... I didn't see the smile until you helped us, but what is the red about?

    I have a tree outside my window at work. The leaves are all dead but they have yet to fall. Its remarkable to me.

    best to you, always

    My trees are dropping fruit (breadfruit, avocados)which we are not around to consume. I hope the neighbors are keeping up with the bounty.

  45. TALONDecember 20, 2011 at 1:06 PM

    My trees are frowning and shivering. They feel totally naked without their leaves :) They whispered they wished they were in Hawaii!

    Your photos just make me smile, Cloudia, and for a moment I forget the chill outside.
