Hey, Rhodes, thanks for your beautiful photos, especially "Tombada!" You are a wizard at this kind of thing...

Two year old Paulownia trunks, didn't grow much this year as I neglected to fertilize. Might make a catamaran out of them someday.

As jacobston noticed earlier, many of the trees here in the fens lean, owing to the exposure to winds...

When? Is this weekend good for you?

Yes, trees! Trees are one of the most important criteria for my search for a piece of land. Nice oaks, pecan are my favorites. If there are no nice trees, I don't want to live there.

We have pecan trees in our backyard each around 65 feet in height. They have a deep tap root that helps them withstand the strongest winds. Come fall they produce pecans that taste like Grade A Canadian Maple syrup, it is a real treat.

But a word of advice. Make sure the pecan trees are not too close to your house as they attract tree rats and other rodents which if left to their own can really tear up a home's structure and make a mess of things.

When metal detection old plantations around here, most gone cept for foundations, grown over by woods, you can still find remnants of the once elaborate gardens and large oaks that lined the entry path..
