A blog category of pics I’ve taken of Hubby Robert and … well, just about anything.
Robert and the Longleaf
Ever since we read Janisse Ray’s Ecology of a Cracker Childhood and watched the beautiful documentary Secrets of the Longleaf, Robert and I have been obsessed with the majestic Longleaf Pine Tree.
The Longleaf Pine once reigned supreme, covering over 90 million acres across the coastal plain of the U.S. Now, because of logging and mismanagement, only several million acres are left.
Robert and I have been fortunate to see the stately pine and reintroduction efforts in our Georgia State Part travels.
Here’s Robert … talking to a Longleaf, while others in the background lean in to listen …
And here he is … massaging the tree …
(I try not to judge. Just document.)
