California fan palm to Mme. Justice and Mr. Cedar: Is there nothing that will reconcile you two?
The date palm remained behind the flag, saying nothing, yet knowing everything.

I think I will never see,
A poem as lovely as a tree,
Poems are written by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.

Sequoia = anti gravity machine, getting the water out of the ground up to the top of one of those babys just blows my mind. That is a truly Giant feat.

Each of these is a great tree, with gravitas and dignity, worthy of hours of contemplation. And there are so many, that time is not enough to appreciate their beauty one by one. So I appreciate them all together in moments of peaceful ecstasy, and come back to revisit them later.

Was in Wales recently and toured a famous garden there. Imagine our surprise when we saw this big tree that looked like a Sequoia.
Turns out it was a Sequoia, brought from California in 1876.
