Did you ever climb a tree? I have loved climbing them since I was a kid. Grandma had a pecan tree in her backyard loved both by squirrels and me. (She fed us both, thank goodness!) Various oak trees sometimes have large limbs near the ground, or big limbs forming forks which are so enticing that little outdoor ruffians have to give it a try. Even as an adult those giant oaks still call to me, encouraging me to come on up. Just like “the big tree” in the cow pasture that lured all the neighborhood boys to come and enjoy its rope-swing when we lived in east Savannah..
