- All the Thompson family members who are bragging about your skinny corn stalks, wimpy tomato plants - check these out; trees that Elder Nathan has planted on our Terrebonne property from 1978 - 1987:
This is the old driveway.
Christmas trees from about1978 - 1985. 
The honey locust I bought for a friend's wedding. Never got it to her, so it's ours now - about 50 feet tall!
More pines behind the corral:
This is the only view we have of Smith Rock now - the trees are hiding it. This is the neighbor's place to the north of us - our trees are framing the pic.
Down the driveway:
Honey locusts down the driveway - not quite in bloom yet.

These are just a small fraction of the trees on our 27 acres. I hope you will make it up to Oregon for the family reunion in 2012. The Warm Springs place doesn't look like this, but we're working on it!
Beautiful, Mom!! Good pictures!
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures Mom! I am so glad you documented the years, etc! But to be completely fair, remeber the many summers I spent planting trees for school clothes money.....oh and the countless times I kept Dad from buring down the trees and telephone poles.....
ReplyDeleteOh, yeah, those darn brats helped, as well. The burning down of trees and fence posts, etc., is fodder for a future post, post, get it? And someone, who shall remain nameless, had a horse that chewed down a couple trees. One little girl could run really fast to tell on her father burning the place down - thanks!
