YES—thank you for articulating the specific beauty of these “fantastical souls” (LOVE this!) who journey with us. In my deepest season of grief, I lived within the four-block radius of downtown Chillicothe—town of my birth. Settled within Appalachia’s foothills, trees are never hard to find here. And I do prefer the forest. But it was my neighbor-tree, who lived in the sidewalk outside my door, who led me out of the darkness and into the light that winter five years ago. Thank you for sharing. I do hope you explore this theme in the future. Looking forward.
So glad you agree, and how beautiful, thanks for sharing! It’s true that trees in more natural landscape have a different appeal but as long as I’m in a developed place having neighbor-trees, as you say, is a must.
I love how you repost all these Anne, I don’t always catch them in notes and I always enjoy both your images and words to go with!
Thanks Susie, I’m glad you’re finding the reposting worthwhile!
I loved seeing all your diaries like this. It leaves me with a feeling of absolute abundance and wonder.
So glad to hear that Debs, thanks for reading!

Love the video of the murder of crows circling above the tree-tops.
Isn’t it spectacular? (To be precise it’s a clamor of rooks, which I think is just as fun to say 😄)
