I like trees a lot. This is one of my favourite neighbourhood trees.

It is a very large tree. Actually, if you look closely underneath, you can see that it is many trees, close together. But someone has trimmed it nicely, so it looks like one tree.

I like big trees because it always make me think about how long the tree has been there. This tree has been here a long time, probably since before I was born. What has this tree seen over it's life? Trees are also interesting, because they say something about the people who look after them. To get these trees to grow so they look like one round tree, many people have taken good care of this tree, and trimmed it a lot.

I always smile when I walk by this tree.
