    My husband was involved with saving a tree in downtown Phoenix. It was a large beautiful tree with a huge shaded area. So important in a desert city to have shade. He worked with a group of people to approach the city and they re-routed the sidewalk around it in a nice way. Then the city had a little ceremony under the tree to celebrate.

    Our grandson was about 7 at the time. For the next year whenever we rode our bikes down that sidewalk, he would stop to salute the tree, and say “I pledge allegiance to the tree that Opa saved.” It was so cute.

    Love that, Tammy!
    My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what I start. So far today, I have finished two bags of M&Ms and a chocolate cake. I feel better already!
