TREES, TREE TRIMMERS & A TREE TATTOO

 TREES

“The greatest wonder is

that we can see these trees

and not wonder more.”

~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

 “I think people tend to forget

that trees are living creatures.

They're sort of like dogs.

Huge, quiet, motionless dogs,

with bark instead of fur.”

~ Jack Handy

“Climb a tree - it gets you closer to heaven.”

~ Author Unknown

“Being a woman has only bothered me in climbing trees.”

~ Frances Perkins

“As a kid, I might have been psycho, I guess,

but I used to throw golf balls in the trees

and try and somehow make par from them.

I thought that was fun.”

~ Tiger Woods

“Trees are your best antiques.”

~ Alexander Smith

“A tree never hits an automobile except in self-defense.” 

~ American Proverb

"Someone's sitting in the shade today

because someone planted a tree a long time ago."

~ Warren Buffett

"A tree is a tree - how many more do you need to look at?"

~ Ronald Reagan

TREE TRIMMERS 

They were trimming the ironwood trees

in Kapiolani Park today,

not a job for someone with fear of heights!

TREE TATTOO

A young man from Seattle caught my eye.

Check out his magnificent tree tattoo,

extending all the way down.
