HERE SHE IS!!!!!!!! looking as great as ever!



Her buds are looking a little longer than last time!
She also still has some old leaves attached to a couple of her branches
and her bark is looking the same as usual.
My revisiting experience was as treacherous as last time. It was SOOO icy again, which is really convincing me to get spikes like asap. Luckily this time I did not fall, and I was able to use some of the tricks I learned last time. I basically went off the beaten path to avoid any ice I saw. It was scary and I did slide around a lot, but I wasn’t alone so it was a lot more fun. There was some mud too! I never thought I would be so excited to see mud, but after all the ice, it was so amazing. I got to sing my mud song which really was a great experience (https://youtu.be/j3Lvw03q0pU). I found it on TikTok and I find them so hilarious, I want to be one of those worms. There were also a lot of birds and it was so lovely to hear them singing as we walked through the woods. I couldn’t identify any of them from their calls, so now I am going to start learning how to! It would rate this experience with the birds and the ice and the mud like a 7/10. I enjoyed myself a lot.
