I don't know how many years ago - less than ten but probably more than five - Steve's parents gave us their living Christmas Tree, which we planted in the front yard, eagerly anticipating that "some day" it would make shade!

It's making shade! And today while I was out working in the front yard I noticed also that it makes a lovely rustling sound when the wind blows through its high branches. Reminds me of being in a pine forest in the High Sierra. I just love that sound!
