THE OLD MAN AND ELM

Among the many trees in our yard (see earlier blog about raking leaves), one of them is an elm. It's not 240 years old, like the one in this story, but it's gotta be pretty old.

Like our old fella in the story, we try to nurse it along with trimming it every 5 years or so. It seems to be living okay because I 'have to rake its leaves' each fall...cussin' the whole time.

This is a feel good story...about an old man...and an old elm tree.

Hopefully I can live as long as the old elm tree that's been living in our yard.
