Here's some of my pics from the ice storm

Nearly every last Bradford Pear tree I've seen was split in two.
The cottonwood - I've always hated that tree, can't say I'm REAL sorry to see it go - but it was a large shade tree, and now it's gone and I can't replace it in a year.

We had over a million homes without power - many for over a week.

Trees are our friends, in more ways than one. And just like our human friends we love them not always with their faults, but because of them.

One time I had to remove a Navajo Willow. She was deforming two Live Oaks in the front yard because she was growing so big so fast.

It was like putting down a pet. I wrote a thing about ethnic cleansing, getting rid of her so the preferred trees could flourish.

It helped. But I still felt guilty.
