    thanks for posting about the tree. i'm glad you liked seeing it finding its new home. Made me wish I had been there to watch it with that community. Nice to see people supporting making something like that happen. I was glad I got to see it happen.

    Glad they saved this tree. I have a love affair with trees, and I hope this one continues to live another one hundred or more years. I hope it didn't go into shock with all that moving. Thank you so much for sharing this. Gives me hope for the world if we have people who love trees. Blessings.....

    Also I feel great things will happen for those people, and what ever comes their way, they will be able to handle, the Lord is with them!

    I once investigated to a place without a lot of tall trees, but decided against. That is when I realized I want to have tall trees around me. Trees do something for my soul.
