VERY SAD

I share Oscar’s feelings about the pine tree that stood in downtown Fairfax. It was a gorgeous, heathy tree, and an icon in the heart of the city. Was it really necessary to take it down? I cried when I drove by and saw that it was cut, piece after piece. It took years to grow, and only one day to be destroyed. That is extremely sad, but unfortunately “ profit” is often prevailing. I hope one day humans will learn to live more harmoniously and respectfully with the beauty of nature. And I hope the City of Fairfax will plant some new trees to honor the loss of the one many of us loved.
