Beautiful writing Mae. My heart aches for these trees and the people who loved them. Certainly an essay about both life near the lake and inter connectedness ❤️

Thank you, Katherine. I’m beginning to realize it’s all about inter connectedness. 🫶🏼

You can feel all the emotions when reading this, and my heart goes out to the trees and all those who admire and awe over them. "My wife and I planted these trees 40 years ago...." especially out to Joe and his wife.
