Yesterday I was on Torrington Ave in Rockinghan and there used to be an 
big very old oak tree in the centre of a building lot. Well the tree is down to 
make way for a house. I asked the next door neighbor how old did she think 
it was and she said they purchased their home about twenty years ago and 
were advised at the time that the tree was over four (400) years old. I believe 
it. Very sad to see the grand old tree gone after surviving for that many 
years.

We do not see nature with our eyes, 
but with our understandings and our hearts.
