Poor Pitiful Tree

The pictures below are of the tree between the cemetery and my back door.  I have taken one picture on the same day each month.  My goal was 1 year.  This is the last month.

I honestly thought when I first started  taking these pictures in January that at some time the tree might be cut down as it is on cemetery property.  It is still standing 12 months later.  Note the grass is still green here.  We had snow on only one month that I took the pictures.  That was March  and it was only a light dusting.  No snow so far this season.  We are in drought status here, almost 10 inches below normal so I guess we need some snow this winter.  I really enjoyed driving in a snowless winter though.

A day late…

and a dollar short.  Well to be honest, I am 2 days late and probably more than a dollar short.

I started posting photos I took of the tree between my back door and the cemetery in January of this year.  The goal was to take the photo on the 4th of each month for one year to note the changes in the tree.  I am not a photographer, just a point and shoot gal but I have had fun doing this.  I think I will pick a different subject for next year.  If you will notice March was the only photo with snow on the ground.  Last winter was dry and very mild.  I am on the lookout for a doozy  of a winter this year.

*****

doozy

Something extraordinary or bizarre. Etymology: perhaps alteration of daisy, and Duesenberg, a luxury car of the late 1920s and 1930s. It's an English expression.

"That footballer's form is a doozy!",
"Man, that one was a real doozy!"

60% chance of rain for tonight. Doing a rain dance.

Stay safe and be happy!!

The Tree…

with my monthly picture of the tree between me and the cemetery.  The photo should have been taken on the 4th of July.  Sorry about that.  I will just blame it on the heat wave.

May 2012  (see, not totally dead but getting there)

I have been to Food Depot to shop their bargains and I think that will be just about it.  It rained and thundered all night and is still drizzly out.

I hope you all have a great weekend.  Stay safe and be happy!!
