trees for life

 trees for life

Four of us girls (Charlotte, me and Lucy and Eleanor from moonrabbits) are doing a sponsored climb to raise money for trees for life, the wonderful charity that is replanting the Caledonian Forest. We intend climbing Bennachie 3 times in one day, taking all three routes to the Mither Tap :D in about a months time. Trees for life is not a member of just giving or any such online fundraiser but please feel free to donate directly on link above if you wish :) For every £5 raised a tree will be planted.

A favourite of our kids years ago, the lorax speaks for the trees. Richard St. Barbe Baker “the man of the trees“ who inspired Trees for Life, was sometimes fondly known as the lorax :)

A nice tree filled place we cycled round recently, thanks to a neighbour telling us the best way to get in there:

    Catching up as usual! That is a cute red squirrel. We used to love home ed trips…

    Good luck with the climb! You are obviously a zillion times younger and fitter than me!

    I don’t know Penny – I have sore legs and am tired today after our practicing!
