A Very Special Pine Tree



This is a very special pine tree. I'm not sure exactly what kind of pine tree it is, but if you're interested, you can take the Orange Line out to the Arnold Arboretum, and take a stroll down the Conifer Path. That's what we did this yesterday, since it was 45 degrees and sunny, a brief thaw from last week's frigid low thirties. We weren't the only couple with the idea; there were plenty of people out and about enjoying the bare trees and sunny skies. I had my camera out, and I stopped to take a picture of some fuzzy sticks that were growing in front of this Very Special Pine Tree. I took this picture, and then right in front of this tree, Adam asked me to be his wife, and I said yes.
