(Cc) - Maples in Karla's Front "Yard" in Indiana
"Fast forward 12 years (after living 3 years in Colorado, 2 years in Africa, and 7 years back in Houston) , and we were living with our two young sons in Hagerstown, Indiana. Ed was Superintendent in a consolidated school district in gorgeous farm country. We lived on the top of a hill on a 3 acre lot with beautiful 360 degree views. Both front and back yards were downhill from the house, but the many maple, elm, oak, tulip, and walnut trees at the bottom of those hills still soared above our house. To get the scale, note the tire swing hanging from a branch of a maple tree near the road that ran in front of our property. The winding drive from house to road made a great tobaggan run for our kids in the winter."
