The indomitable Oaks have long been my favorite trees. Why? I like their spirit and fortitude they cling strongly to life. I’ve seen young oaks mown to the ground, cut down by a weed whacker and had all their leaves stripped off and still grow back stronger than ever! That’s a strength and attitude I’d like to emulate.
