Today is Arbor Day, 2013

"I love to plant a growing thing...
A tree, a shrub, a vine...
And know it will for years and years
Keep growing there, a sign
To children who come after me
That someone thought of them,
And left behind a living friend
More precious than a gem."

~ Betty Foust Smith

Haldimand Stewardship Council will be assisting with a tree planting ceremony on Wednesday, May 1, 2013, in the City of Burlington.

Thought for Today ~

"Blessed is the individual who is so busy that he has no time to worry in the daytime, and has kept himself so occupied that he finds himself too sleepy to worry at night."

~ Treasured quotation from our Mum, Reta Melick (nee Turnbull, 1921 - 2002) b. East Seneca, Haldimand County
