Whenever Mr X and I drove down into Denver all of the trees there were bursting forth with vibrant green. Then we'd drive back up the hill to our house (about 2,500 feet) to be greeted by the naked, seemingly dead deciduous trees surrounding our house/neighborhood. I was getting so impatient that I decided that maybe our trees had all truly died over the winter and what if they never came back!?! How tragic!

I'm thrilled to report that they're alive and well.

Congratulations on living trees. I wonder if it was the spring. This year I kept going out to check the trees close up for any signs of life. I worried that they all winter killed.
that's how it was around here too.... spring was so slow to come. i think the winters may do us in here. but each week, the woods get thicker and more full. we can't see five feet into the woods in the backyard any more.
i'm glad you're blogging again.
Everything took forever here. Normally my herbs on my deck are nuts but it is so slow this year. Saturday was 60s and windy! 40s at night. That's not normal for VA in late May.
We haven't been doing much that was blog-worthy lately so that's why the blog slowed down.
