Letter: Thanks to people who plant and care for trees and shrubs

As I drive down the streets every spring, I see beautiful blossoms on the trees and shrubs, and brightly colored flowers. These sights bring delight to my eye, joy into my heart and it lifts my spirit from the cares of the world.

It is very refreshing! I feel a need to give a big heartfelt thanks to all the businesses, families and individuals who have made the effort to plant and care for these delightful scenes.
