Went to the arboretum today, sounds silly of course arborist go to arboretums why not? Gotta see trees, well I see enough trees, but a conference was held there and they served lunch. A good lunch at that!
It was nice to look around the room filled with (what else)arborist, a note how old everyone has gotten. I feel a little better when I peer at that old guy every morning in the mirror. A few new faces and a few fresh faces. The more things change the more they stay the same. Everyone has the same problems, that's reassuring not the only one. It was nice to reconnect with old friends, adversaries, competiors and collegues.
Winter returned by afternoon and I left I had a sense that spring will come and all will get back to work. You can sense the boredom, fear of the uncertain future and anxiety brought on my idleness. The first nice day most will bolt out of the gate like a bunch of race horses at the derby.
