About my Blog

“The clearest way into the Universe is through a forest wilderness.” 
-John Muir 


I am doing this blog for a nature project assignment in my AP English class.  I will be observing a tree that is located outside of my high school. Through these observations I hope to be able to take in nature with no technology or any social interruptions. I am looking forward to what will come from my observations and hope to start realizing all the beauty that nature holds. 

More about what I will be observing:
I will be observing a pine tree that seems to be about ten or eleven years old. It is about twelve feet high, full of life and sheds a lot of pinecones. It is near the senior parking lot at my school(Wooster High School), so it often gets "abused" I guess you could say by careless teenagers. It only gets water when it rains and sometimes when the school maintenance comes around to trim it up it will get a drink. To be completely honest before doing this assignment I had never given the tree a second thought. I am now very glad to be able to experience all if its changes throughout the seasons and watch it grow.
