‘Tree museum’

Dear Editor:

Last Sunday evening we were treated to a most beautiful, extraordinary sunset; otherwise, it had been a dull, grey, dreary sky all day. The sunset then, was an amazing gift, a sight to behold.

I witnessed it heading north between Puslinch and Guelph.  I crossed over Maltby Road and suddenly on the horizon poking upwards in front of this sunset was the outline of a nearby industrial building momentarily blocking my view. All the trees were removed from the land and the hills and valleys laid bare.

A reminder that “progress” is coming soon. Like a monster on its belly with huge arms extended clawing it’s way towards us ... like an old Joni Mitchell song: take all the trees and put them in a tree museum.

Liz Hughes,
