I do love a good climbing tree. I hopped in this one when my friend Brittany was visiting and she was kind enough to take a few pictures for me. This tree would make a perfect reading tree; the branches are exactly shaped to cradle your body while you lounge with a book in your hands while the leaves shade you from the sun. Sitting in it reminded me of my routine after school when we lived in North Carolina. I always had a sort of after school routine to unwind from the day; in junior high in dreary Washington State I would sit in front of our electric fireplace and read a book. In balmy North Carolina where I spent the first part of high school, I would lounge in a hammock out back, reading. I'd like to find a good place to read outside this summer.
