Earth Day 2018

Well, this was a nice surprise!  I went to the supermarket to pick up a few things today, and the cashiers were handing out a free tree sapling to every customer at check out, in celebration of Earth Day.  This was especially meaningful this year, because we lost quite a few trees on our property after that last snowstorm a few weeks ago. We'll be planting some larger ones outside to replace the ones that came down, but in the meantime, this little guy is a nice reminder to appreciate the small, unexpected pleasures that come your way.
