Once through Tatlow Park, you will come out on 3rd Ave. Turn right here and at the next crossroads turn left onto Bayswater St. On the north east corner of 5th Ave and Bayswater St you will come across our next featured tree. Here it is not just the type of tree that we think is interesting (a lovely maple), but the shape it has become: A Pruned Tree.
A Pruned Tree
This shape of tree is a very common sight in Vancouver. In order to avoid the telephone cables above, the central branches of trees are removed to create a U shape. There are some fantastic examples all over Kitsilano but we think this is one of the best. Let us know if you come across a better one.
Finding your connection: Energy
Imagine you and the tree are the only things left on earth. The tree is your only living companion and any connection you can make will have a big impact on your life. Does the tree now seem any different?
Quote: Buddha
We are the same as plants, as trees, as other people, as the rain that falls. We consist of that which is around us, we are the same as everything.
