Trail of the lonesome pine

This beautiful tree stands alone … tall, graceful and magnificent. The first time that I saw it I thought of Laurel and Hardy singing ‘In the Blue Ridge mountains of Virginia on the trail of the lonesome pine.’ It is lovely and sturdy and must surely have been climbed by a hundred school boys, or may be more. The only thing that is missing from the picture is a red squirrel …. but we no longer have enough pine trees to support these beautiful animals in Worcestershire.

Lovely pictures. So sad that there are not enough of them around for the squirrels
