There are billions of people and a version of normal to go along with each one of them. No two versions are exactly the same. There will be hundreds of thousands of little things that make up your version of normal. With any luck you can find people that have close to the same idea of what normal is that you do. These are your friends. Anyone else you try to tolerate as best you can.
....
The exact definition of normal depends on who's running the asylum.
It would be hard to choose just one tree as my favorite. My tree climbing days ended when I hit puberty, but I love the beauty and broad spectrum of those trees.
At Mission San Luis Rey is a Peruvian Pepper tree, planted in 1830, brought there by a sailor. That thing is amazing. Pepper trees have amazing gnarly trunks.
I love #8, a tree within a tress and #12 looks like the small cone shaped lollipops I used to buy for my kids, they called them "umbrella lollies" I like #14 too.
Don't worry, Mike. I won't tell anyone that #2 and #16 are the same.
ReplyDeleteSome beautiful canopies in today's batch!
ReplyDeleteBill - I can't believe I did that again. Kathy caught me last week and I was looking carefully this week. HA! Not. I changed 16.
ReplyDeleteDeb - Agree.
I like all of them, but 9 is spectacular.
ReplyDelete18 makes me where there is a will, there's a way but 5 is my favorite this week because it looks like some awesome stargazing.
ReplyDeleteWonderful!
ReplyDeleteSome really stunning trees in this collection.
ReplyDeleteKathy - I should have planted some red maple years ago.
ReplyDeleteMatt - Out in the woods where you can actually see the stars.
Shaw - I'm assigning #13 as your favorite.
Lady - THe randomness of the internet has provided again.

ReplyDeleteKirk - I just looked. It's GONE!
Allen - There are a few stellar ones today.
