Tree Tuesday and a Happy Birthday Salute to Old-Guy-Photos!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
Today is #TreeTuesday initiated by @Old-Guy-Photos! Let's have a few trees to get this party started!
Hide them in the clouds
Until the weight of time
Has blown them away
Forever
Guided by the gentlest breeze
Branches so golden and roots, deep still in the earth
Shading my life from the decades that are spinning
Until
One day
My tall, sturdy knight
Standing through the weather
the seasons of life
In this world that I had created
An all-knowing sense
Of truth, as we know it
― Shelby Foote
So the joy may touch your soul
(¸.•´♥ (¸.•´ ♥
Suspended low
Hanging around
Just waiting
To watch you blossom
Happy Birthday to You
Happy Birthday to You
Happy Birthday Dear Paul

I held an atlas in my lap
Ran my fingers across the whole world
And whispered,
"Where does it hurt?"
It answered,
"Everywhere"
"Everywhere"
Thank you so much @pixresteemer!

@dswigle & @old-guy-photos,
Denise, beautiful poetic renderings ... truly wonderful sentiments.
Happy Birthday, Ol' Guy. In the reminiscing that such occasion inspires, reflect upon how many friendships you now possess ... a number, I suspect, considerably higher than when you were younger.
In the year I've been on Steemit, I've watched you and Denise operate as tag-team partners worthy of the WWF. :-) Or, perhaps more poetically, like two soldiers ... each having the other's back. Such trustworthy friendships are rare ... you're fortunate to have made one.
A toast, perhaps, is in order:

That was quite beautiful, Quill. @quillfire It touched me in a way that is unexplainable, perhaps because I didn't realize until very lately that anyone would notice my friendships around Steemit.
The Old Guy is a worthy venture for those who get to know him. :) You cannot help but like him, he is a hopelessly nice person. Truth.
And thank you for taking the time to write this.

Oh thank you for the well wishes. It means more than you know. I wish I was back there a year ago. Yes I want a redo on my year!
Your trees and words are always amazing. Thanks again.
Well happy happy birthday! I was hoping you would make your way over here so that I could wish you a very happy birthday! I finally brought out my red writing to surprise you because you held that one over my head for a while. Lol. But I brought it out special for your birthday. How does it feel to be 29 again?
Oh no! You don't want to be where you were last year, sitting at that tire place forever and ever and ever! You told me that was the worst birthday ever! So I don't want you to have to go back there again. If it makes you feel any better, right now it is sleeting in Camelot. I can't think of anything else it would put a smile on your face.
I hope you are having a spectacular birthday the kids made you a birthday cake to remember. Today is officially a cheating day in terms of diet, so I hope you are treating yourself 2 something sinful and delicious! I know that I will be doing that just because it's your birthday. LOL. Any excuse will do.
Happy birthday, Paul!

Thank you so much Denise. It has been a pleasure to get to know you and to work with you over the past year. I thourghly enjoyed every moment. I always said you were the best, so kind, caring and generous. Be well, my friend.
Well that's good that you have enjoyed it because I don't intend on going anywhere. Working with you has been a blast and I am looking forward to seeing more of our podcast go up, if you can stand to edit any more of them. I've had a couple requests for more, but, you can never tell if they're being kind because they are friends of both of us. I think we both enjoyed them too much for them to do anything but be a Trainwreck! Every time you say it's a Trainwreck oh, I have to laugh because it probably is and yet it's still funny to me.
Thank you for the well wishes however it should be me asking you how you are doing? I need to see a picture of that birthday cake! And today of all days you are truly !tip worthy!!
Happy Birthday!!!
I think there are some that get a chuckle or two out of our videos! Oh you know I would love to do more vids! I guess we will have to see if the Old Guy can pull through this first. Not ashamed to admit that I have felt better tbh. Thanks again for the nice day Denise
Confess!! Are you dying and didn't tell me??? And if you elect to fire/replace me, i want severence suck up.
Just saying.
Ill tell ya in a whatsapp message if you promise to not say to go in
Pffft. Go in! :)

Oh! This is happening right now! Camelot has died! Frozen to death!
Well minus 13 tonight, minus 19 tomorrow night... Sad to see that there is trouble in paradise. Get the fire going and Pavi singing!
Fabulous birthday post to your dear friend!!
Beautiful trees and leaves gather to give
The birthday guy with bundled leg
Splendid vibes and with a kiss
To warm and hug on his special day!
Cheers.

Wow, that gnarled palm! I have seen some gnarled pines but never a palm. Very interesting. Great tree shots as always Denise! And happy birthday to you @old-guy-photos! :)
I was actually wondering if somebody trained that tree to grow that way or if it actually grew that way. I saw that Tree on St.Kitts and it took me by surprise just standing there in the middle of nowhere. I have only ever seen one under even worry about what really like this, also in the Caribbean. Must be in the water! Thank you for the visit and I am sure @old-guy-photos will appreciate all the well wishes!

Very interesting indeed. Actually, it reminded me of a place in Poland known as "the Crooked Forest" where most of the trees are crooked in a very bizarre way. But let´s leave the trees alone for now - it is an @old-guy-photos birthday post! :)
How Bizarre! Now I am going to have to look it up!
Have a wonderful day!

True, wonderful pictures! However, of all I prefer the lawn in front of your house.
Thank you!! I visit it as much as I can! It has so many nut , fig and fruit trees!
Sometimes it is my vacation place.
!tip
Definitely a perfect holiday spot and so close.
It really is!
Yes, it is. Often, however, we don't see the good that is very close to us.
That surely is the truth!

wow, the last photo is amazingly super beautiful. thanks for the share @dswigle
Well oh, thank you so much for your exceedingly nice words. I appreciate you making your way over and many pardons for my tardiness and making it over to your place. There are some days that it takes me all day just to answer comments and I feel guilty about that. But just know that I appreciate you taking the time and I will try to reciprocate just a little bit better.

Beautiful post you have shared with such awesomeness and happy birthday to @old-guy-photos! :
I'm sure @Old-Guy-Photos appreciates it!
Seriously is that your front yard and you have all those fruit trees on your property can you adopt me i will pay for my own ticket one way..lol :)
Haha! Yes, but it is the house that is on the shore, not here in the DC area. It is about 3 1/2 to 4 hours driving. I bought it for weekends and down time. It is truly peaceful out there.
Sighs
That's really cool well i can go take care of all your trees and maintenance around the place all i ask for is a bed and to be able to eat some fresh fruits of the trees i use to be a fruit framer remember...hehe :)
LOL OMG!! You would never leave your beloved Thailand!!!!!
Yeah...got to agree with you this is true but one day it would be nice to see that property of yours maybe on my honeymoon...lol :)
Ohhh! It is not the house close to Washinton,DC... it is out at the Virginia Shore.
Check out this map here
Virginia Shore says great can i hire it out for my wedding...hehe :)
