The climbing tree...

[mantis]

Went to the 'new' (yeah, 9 month old) property today to take some Christmas pictures of the kids. We ended up playing in the trees. I have to admit that once I started climbing around in the trees I reverted to a 10 year old. I used to love climbing trees. I might have to build the kids a tree house... yeah, for the kids...

Nice one- looks like the perfect tree for that kind of stuff, my youngest (5yr) got stuck up one the other day- talk about screaming you could of heard it for miles

I used to love to climb trees. but at some point as i grew older that love was overpowered and killed by my fear of plummeting.
beautiful trees though, almost a shame to cut them down to plant bamboo

man, if we only had trees like that when I was growing up! fir trees just dont have that kind of "climbability"....

we had to be content with fiding the reall tall skinny ones, shimmying up to the top untill it started to lean over, then let it slowly droop over until you were on the ground again!
