Arbor Day
I think the acclaimed author and noted ecologist Anne Labastille summed it up well:
"I feel this communion, this strange attunement, most readily with large white pines, a little less with sugar maples, beeches, or oaks. Clearly white pines and I are on the same wave-length. What I give back to the trees I cannot imagine. I hope they receive something, because trees are among my closest friends."
On this day, we celebrate trees, the Arbor Day Foundation, and remember our friend Laura Smith who loved trees and nature and whose spirit inspires us every day.
