I have another favorite tree.
It lives right outside my hometown house.
It is an Elm tree.
It is huge.
In the fall it turns the prettiest shades of orange, yellow, and red.
When my older siblings and I were little, we would take family pictures around this tree.
Then we would use those photos for our annual Christmas cards.
I do not know why my parents thought it would be a good idea to take pictures by this tree.
But who cares.
I still love that tree.
I will cry the day they have to cut it down.
