Planting Granpa's Tree






I was given a gift card to a local nursery by my coworkers when Grandpa passed away last Christmas day. I have hung onto it for all these months trying to decide which type tree I could plant that would remind me of him. I finally chose a sycamore.



I remember sitting on his front porch just about every night and swinging on that big ol' front porch swing. There was a huge sycamore tree in the center of the front yard just feet from the steps. It was a beautiful tree and attracted many birds. To this day I can still here the whippoorwills and the Bob Whites calling out in the summer night. Lord, I miss him.



Sarah and Dale did the planting.
