Persistence

This last week, I went to Effie Yeaw Nature Center for a club that I am in. While there, I saw one of the most amazing trees that I may ever encounter. This tree, once strong and large, fell over a while back, but kept growing. It still had roots in the ground and leaves in the trees. A while before I got to the nature center, there was a small fire in which the tree got severely burned on the lower part of its fallen trunk, yet when I got there, the roots were still firmly planted and the leaves were still growing. I was amazed at how persistent and strong that tree was. Also, I moved my Japanese Maples to a new location, which I will talk about soon.
