It's a nice feeling, isn't it.  "Sermons in stones and books in
running brooks."

I love planting trees, I've done it since my youth and still go by that
yard usually once a year when we run a race in that town.  I grew dogwood
trees from seeds, and filled the yard with them.  The current owners of
that house removed quite a few, but the place still looks like the snow is
suspended in air in the spring when they all bloom.
