Thank you for that comment David.
It is indeed an Honour to have our trees accepted.
I am told that Mrs Pup and I were the first to offer and be accepted.
It was as I stated a sad moment but one we have looked for ward to for 4 years. Now the hard part saving our pennies for the trip.
Usually just when we get enough some disaster then the pennies saved have to go on that. Or some affliction attacks one of us.
OZ saying must have run over C#*+^man again thank you Pup mrs Pup and the forman.

Hey pup,
What a great sacrifice to give up some beautiful trees like that, I don't think I could do it. Just for that I'm going to make you an offical Okie, that's kind of like being knighted, congratulations.

Harry

Thanks for that Harry I do not mind the Okie bit, but object to the knight bit.
I am of Irish Scots heritage and both fought against the crown.

Yes it was disscussed between mrs Pup and myself for awhile, we knew we could not leave them to the Children unfortunatly they only see $ signs. As you can see they are rather large so the choice was made. We as you are aware are getting older so moving trees of that size becomes a danger to trees and you. Also selling has not been an option.
