That is so sad about your trees. We have four ash trees and are watching and fearing the approach of the emerald ash borer in northeast WI. Maybe we’ll be lucky.

Sorry about your tree.
Maybe it will make you feel better that I gave you a blog award. If you are interested and want to pass it along, check out my blog.
As always, your projects look fab!

So sorry about the Dutch Elm Disease – I remember it taking out the vast majority of trees on my childhood street. It was devastating!

I am drooling over that purply goodness. The colors! The pattern! The design. It’s simply magnificent.

When we moved to Florida, we were delighted to find out that boxes of animal crackers have Manatees in them!

That’s so sad about your trees. We live in northern Ontario in Canada and although we have so many trees it hurts to lose even one…

I am sorry about the trees. They are so large and gracefull. I have no trees and I miss them. I hope you can devise a suitable ceremony to mark their passing. Ceremony always helps me with loss.

I am contemplating argyle socks. I did a swatch of the planned pattern and almost went nuts with all the tangles. I have some conception of the patience you put into that sweater. It is amazing! You will be so proud when it is done. I find the hardest part is the end. I hope you can keep on knitting it.

Also sorry about your tree. I remember when our town started losing so many elms and how empty it felt.

Hope you plant something new to grow with the girls

That is really sad about your tree. We lost a whole tree last winter (ice storm) and part of two more. I feel your pain.

Purple sweater looking good!

You have my most sincere sympathy for your trees. We have 11 trees on our property, and most of them are now in trouble for various reasons. We lost one this summer, and I’ve been grieving over it for months.

I’m so sorry to hear about your tree. I can imagine how you feel. I have an oak tree by my home, larger than the two you have. It towers over my neighbors house, which is two story.. I have a cape cod, so it dwarf’s my house! I love all trees, especially the grandeur of the large ones.
