    Are you a sturdy oak?  A weeping willow?  A prickly pine?  Or maybe an exotic palm?  Or something else entirely?

    Hands down my favorite tree are the great oaks. They’re amazing and have this wonderful old feel to them. Anytime I visit New Orleans, one stop I must make is to see these magnificent trees.  Here’s a photo from a visit to the Oak Alley Plantation.

    I’d like to think of myself as a maple, colorful and nutty at times 😉

    I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.

    Green is my favorite color, so I favor being a Balsam Fir. I and the Balsam Fir live “Up North”. In winter the Balsam Fir are ‘capped’ with snow and I know my hair color would match the cap of snow on the balsam!

    I hope my self – my tree can be bendable under a load, shake it off, and keep on standing strong. My self – my tree can also grow among others. A canopy and/or shadow of leaves does not deter the growth. My self – my tree are evergreen – color lasting no matter the season or reason.

    I love the hike in the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest to cut your own Christmas Tree which of course is the Balsam Fir – the most fragrant of trees and wreaths. The Balsam Fir – my spirit tree.

    I’d have to say a sturdy oak or a maple.  Love the shade offered by them in the summer and the colors in the fall.

    Favorite type of tree would be a Red Maple. We have one in our yard that changes to a brilliant red in the fall. Sadly, a large portion of it broke off in a windstorm a couple years ago.

    What kind of tree would I be? Maybe an apple tree or cherry tree. Something that can serve many purposes as I take on many different job types.

    My favorite type of tree is the mighty red wood.  Tall, strong, and majestic.
