Arbor Day

One hundred and thirty-eight years ago, Sterling Morton planted a tree in Nebraska and he encouraged his friends and neighbors to do the same. This simple act was the beginning of Arbor Day and in 1970 President Richard Nixon proclaimed the last Friday in April as National Arbor Day, a day to plant and care for trees. Arbor Day is now celebrated across the world and in my little corner of the world, I present my celebration of Arbor Day.
