I was talking on the radio about how sad it is that about 4-5 full grown trees were removed from Monument Way across from our studios. It is so naked without them. I had no idea why they were cut down...until the City of Portland tweeted me.

I am a big fan of trees. I think they add so much to any area, and it actually really makes me sad when they are chopped down. Look at what the area did look like!

When I said how sad I was to see them go...Portland tweeted me. We had a mini conversation.

 

I know, I know. They meant to say 'get' creative. I do that sorta stuff all the time. So, good news! Trees coming in the spring and Christmas lights hanging off...something!
