I love going to Ntl Parks in US & Cda

I never thought of —
Foot traffic impact
Tidal Basin water changes
Etc

I bet these people could teach our local candidates for « Gibsons Haircut » (NOT approved by Tree Amnesty)

Didn’t RonB make a post somewhere about the age of cherry trees in Tidal Basin WA DC?

I am in ornamental cherry learning curve and I think I read the post yesterday but it could have been old thread.
