trees, marvelous trees

This tree wants to die...This is the third or fourth time this tree has fell down...during IKE, we put back up..then another storm knocked it down, we put it back up and then the last time it fell we got serious and spent some more time and money trying to make it really stay up this time....but this tree, it just doesnt want to be......its like the turtle that keeps trying to escape, but we always find her..this tree wants to die but we always put it back up!!

Some would say just let the tree go, but we have 3 in front of the house and it would just not look right to have one missing....and I love what it looks like in the spring when they bloom..

The only pink we got around here....
