1300-1400

In a tree behind Smullin and Eaton Halls.

Today I moved into a tree well sort of. Essentially my friend a I decided that climbing trees was the necessary post Halloween activity. So we went to the lawn behind Eaton and Smullin hall, near the construction site. There we found the tree that we both had the inkling to climb for a while. One we arrived at the tree it out be absolutely impossible to climb! Which was most disappointing since the limbs of the tree seemed absolutely perfect to lay upon since the were so broad. Luckily with some thought process my friend and I went into Eaton and barrowed a chair. This way we were able to maneuver around the knobby trunk and get into the tree, by leaping onto the lowest branch from the chair.  Once in the tree the branches turns out to be perfect to lay upon!! I was able to lay all the way down and look up into the canopy of the tree. This was lovely because this tree still had most of its leaves. Yet there were soo many variations in the colors of leaves, looking up was like looking at a really complicated and sporadic tie-die. So after this experience I have decided that tree life my suit me quite well.
