This tree. I love it. I have painted it before, but there used to be a pair. Now only one stands. The other has fallen from old age, weather and other elements. This one will be next and when that day comes I will be sad. It stands watching the marsh, the only place I have ever seen a moose in all of my time in Prince Albert National Park. It is a special place on the road to Birch Bay. Perhaps this year is my last painting this stoic guard- it, too, may be down after the winter.
