It Is Enough Simply To Look At A Tree

Two years ago we planted ten trees on our property.  I wanted something green and leafy to look at (I'm not a huge cactus fan), and Ed wanted a privacy screen between us and the neighbor.

They've grown considerably since we put them in.  They were skinny and sparsely leafed when they were planted, and now they're fatter and more full.

This week he was working on digging a new ditch to buy the irrigation lines.  We've had so much rain that much of the dirt covering the lines had washed away, and a few critters got to it and chewed on the plastic tubing. 

I love the trees and hope to plant more.  They're beautiful to look at and apparently, their mere existence provides health benefits.  Win-win.
