#madrona tree

I love the Madrona tree in the little park around the corner from our new home so I had to take a photo of me with my tree!! ❤️❤️🪾🏡🥳🎉🎊

This is Petey's favorite tree so I had to include this photo, too!! There are so many trees in this park, but these two are special to us!! We love our daily walks here very much!! It's so nice to be nestled among the trees!!🌲🌲🪾🌲🌲🐾❤️🕊

I went one mile from my home and I found this charming park!! I remembered that it was there last night so I took Petey there this morning. We are going to visit this park every morning from now on!! This is what I saw as I stepped out of my car!! Look at all those tall, beautiful trees!! And there's a Madrona tree right up front!! You gotta love the Madrona tree!! In the midst of all these pine trees, the Madrona tree decided this is where it's gonna live, and it moved right in and made this gorgeous park its home!! They just pick where they'll grow and they thrive there!! I think we all should follow their example and be like a Madrona tree in spirit!!

I love their red color and their peeling bark!!
