NOTHING TO REPORT
I regret to say that I was all tied up with important activities, and thus I was unable to post anything of substance today.
What could be more important than tree and neighbor law, you wonder? First, I had to assist my 5-year-old granddaughter in building a scale-model snowman, then help her 3-year-old dynamo of a younger sister make soap in the shape of dinosaurs, and finally attend a tea party whose guests included the orange soap Tyrannosaurus and a stuffed meerkat.
The dinosaur ate a plastic taco before the party broke up.
My wife and I were quite busy with the girls, whom we just don’t see very often because they live where there is even more snow than we have in northern Ohio.
FaceTime is a great thing, but you can’t use FaceTime to make soap dinosaurs. As the 3-year-old surely would tell you.
I’ll be back to work Monday, when we’ll explore how trees–like some people–can get a bad reputation, and what knowing the reputation can do to affect our duty to others.
