This morning you and I joined some other volunteers to help plant trees in a "park" that had been badly neglected.
We spent about 90 minutes there in total and planted two trees, each about 8 feet tall. One was a buckeye, the other was unidentified.
I was concerned about how well-suited this activity would be for a guy your age but you handled it like an ace. When the digging started, you told me in a cautious voice that you just wanted to watch. Pretty soon, you warmed up to the idea of getting your gardening gloves dirty and made good use of a very heavy shovel.
This non-profit outfit holds events like this all the time. I think we'll be back for more.
Dad
