Bird's-eye view

Hellohello!

Now, today I want to tell you about one  of the many tomboyish hobbies I have. This one is, as you could probably glean from the picture, tree climbing. Now, the picture up there is my favorite local climbing tree, because its seventy years old and I can climb super high. The first time I  (or anyone) climbed it was last fall, with my best friend in the whole world, Evelyn. After it had torn clothes, caught hair, poked, prodded, scraped, and generally banged us up, it was officially christened Technical Difficulties by an indignantly scratched Evelyn. The highest we climbed then was a cowardly fifteen feet to a convenient resting place, a majestic split in the trunk covered in creeping ivy and glossy needles, with comfortable branches and stumps for sitting. It struck us as a beautiful, perfect, clubhouse, and since it was a perfect example of natural splendor, with the dancing sunbeams striking the ivy and gleaming needles just right and a soft breeze playing through our pulled hair and ruffling the shining needles, we named it the Palace. So for almost a year, the fifteen-foot Palace was our limit of climbing, especially since Dad had, after having a conniption fit seeing us fifteen feet up a tree, forbidden us to go any higher. Poop. But I, being an adventurer at heart, ended up breaking Dad's rule, ha! Unfortunately, and please forgive me if you're reading this, Ev, but you were a bit more cowardly about it. BUT maybe you'll change your mind once you see my pictures!! Haha! Hahahaha! So now I will show you, readers, the best view in the WORLD!!!

This is Technical Difficulties, the best tree in the world! I <3 you, big guy!

Here are a couple of pics of the view from the Palace.

This is the neighbor's roof and the little chair in his back yard.

There's Emma from fifteen feet up. Hello down there!

Here's the view from between the branches. That little red blob is the other neighbors' roof, the ones who live behind us.

Here's a random picture of me climbing up. Onward, soldier!

Here's a better picture of the neighbor's roof from almost twice as high! Ha!

Here's a random picture of the sky when it was still blue, before the rainclouds.

I can climb so high, I outdistance the ivy!

Here is my favorite view of the neighborhood. Now you know why I named the post that!

Here's a better picture of the 'little red blob' house, just much higher!

Here's an even better picture of Ed's roof and the neighbor's houses. Now I feel like a stalker. :(




And that concludes my post. Plant, climb, and love your trees!
