I guess it wasn't too clear! Sorry. I just meant that if any of my readers had a favorite Paris Rouge photo that I had posted, to let me know so I could be sure and include it in the book I'm doing on Blurb. I'll probably not sell a one, but I think it will be fun to do it! :)<br />VVirginiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01152464973355194995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8558559381295017448.post-53899603745464774682011-05-17T15:35:55.748-04:002011-05-17T15:35:55.748-04:00Isn't it fun to take these kinds of walks?

He's considered to be America's first landscape architect and locally designed Golden Gate Park and Oakland's Mt. View Cemetery. He's a featured personality in Devil in the White City (a really good read) about the 1893 Chicago World's Fair (well, and a serial killer who operated during the fair). But I digress.Oakland Daily Photohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04352365270299187377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8558559381295017448.post-440038271940556212011-05-17T15:24:57.517-04:002011-05-17T15:24:57.517-04:00If this is a way to learn the names of the trees, ...If this is a way to learn the names of the trees, just count me in!VPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10186211344492845052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8558559381295017448.post-58309823751338800322011-05-17T14:53:27.740-04:002011-05-17T14:53:27.740-04:00Quite a crowd for a tree tour -- impressive.
