Trees and their foliage are, without a doubt, some of Nature’s most wondrous treasures.

LOL! Yes I do, but I’m a pretty youthful grandma, relatively speaking. When you have kids early in life, that can happen. 😉

Thanks, Diana! Those are my grandchildren in the last pic, and they are game for just about anything. We can take a lesson from them, for sure. 🙂
