Trees!
I love trees, I feel a connection to them. I say hello to trees. I will stop and put my hand on them and say a silent greeting. I will hug trees. In some of the trees around here, I can see faces, especially in the forests, and I instantly make up stories about tree people and fairies and the lives they lead. I will stop and stare at trees that I think are particularly lovely.
So, when I found this, you can imagine how thrilled I was (found via Magpie and Cake and Neatorama.com).
I don't like the circus trees as much, because it looks like it would have hurt the trees to grow like that (and I'm sure the tree designer didn't think of that), but the other ones. Just wow. The aspens in Utah that are all one organism is really impressive. The tree in Monterey looks lonely and proud. The mexican Tule Tree. Swoon.
You have probably seen the book, places to see before you die? Well, I've looked at it, and I don't really need to see all the places in there, but I have decided my list of places to see includes meeting all these trees.

OMG I LOVE TREES!!!
When I was in high school, my bedroom window overlooked the driveway and there was this tree on the other side of the driveway that I would always talk to. That tree and I were great friends.
I drove by that house a couple months ago and somebody added an addition on to it (it doesn't even look like the house I lived in) and they cut down my tree in the process. I was so upset. My poor tree.

WOW. That's a big freaking tree.

Poor tree indeed. Isn't the Chapel Oak cool?
