There is one catalpa at the nursing home where I visit daily. I love it. Sadly, one of our severe storms really tore many branches off of it. Had I known then that catalpa wood is precious, I would have grabbed those limbs! I guess they got dumped with all the other downed tree limbs that year, who knows where.
So the tree is a mere shadow of itself, but its lovely blossoms continue to fall on the cars parked beneath it in the parking lot. Usually my own. I park under it because I have become emotionally attached to it and feel that it is "my tree."
What a nice surprise, nap! But do the caterpillars fall on your car, too? Maybe not, that far north.
I get a bit emotionally attached to special trees as well. They become comfortable anchors for my soul when my life tilts too far in an uncomfortable direction.
Happy New Year, nap!
It's so good to hear from you.
