Reading my post and these comments with retrospectacles, we apparently are. :-) The good thing being a 3ft+ tree is that the average man cannot bring you down. It's tougher being a young tree, say less than a hundred years old. Tree huggers, is that what we are? Reading my post and these comments with retrospectacles, we apparently are. :-)

Too few trees and those that were there were knocked down by builders. I love to look at them, admiring them, and hearing the wind flow through the branches and leaves. South Carolina has so many trees, as does North Carolina. They are great places to be for us tree huggers. :-) I’m with you guys and just love to have trees around, which is one of the reasons that I left Dallas, Texas.

Where I am at there is no shortage of trees and last year I finally took down several 3ft+ dia maples to let a little light into the house. It still hurt taking them down but at least now when the wind blows I don't have to worry about them coming through the roof. Hurts to see any tree go in an urban area.

One of the main reasons we bought the house we did was because of all the trees on the lot. As you pointed out on my blog, that tree long ago was killed in part by the creepers around the outside; we lost another tree earlier this summer for the same reason. But the trees make this place very special. I wasn't sure, were these trees diseased or just taken down for what ever will be built on that lot? Trees are an amazing species.
