    Gini, I have an old apple tree beside my house which was planted when my house was built in 1939. There are a lot of memories ssociated with this tree, climbing in it, all of the family gatherings under it, a lot of memories. It's getting getting old and and on life support. If it has to be cut down, it will leave a big empty space in the yard and in my heart.

    My 13 year old niece is with me now, so I have been especially busy.

    But when I have the time I will take a picture of the "surprise" my beautiful tree has given me.

    I'll be waiting for the surprise picture. If I was your neighbor, I have something made for out of the "still good" wood.

    In my recent days of "soul searching" I fondly remember this tree. With many good friends, I have shared smiles, laughter, and tears under the cool shade of the branches. After a long day of shopping for the BBQ it's like coming "home" and to think that it will not be there the next time I travel south, makes me blubber like an idiot.

    Is it still standing Gini?
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!
