#ThursdayTreeLove – 170

Posted on by Parul Thakur

Just try new things. Don’t be afraid. Step out of your comfort zones and soar, all right? ~ Michelle Obama

This July I had a chance to get close to an Oak and I had to get a picture. My peer clicked this picture for me (Thanks, MH!). You see me with an Oak in Anoka Coutry Fair. There is a lot more in the picture – a trash can, a Henna artist, adverts and all that fun. In spite of the soaring temperature, being with friends and having some fun was the best part of my day.

Thursday Tree love is a photo feature hosted on this blog on every 2nd and 4th Thursday of a month. The next edition will go live on August 22, 2024. If you would like to play along, post a picture of a tree on your blog, tell me where did you spot the tree and link it back to this post.

If you don’t see the pingback, please leave a link to your post in my comments section. Please make sure that your post’s link is showing up on this latest edition. I will link your posts on my blog in the next edition and spread some love. Let’s come together to appreciate the beautiful nature around us.

    2. Good you asked me the question, Archana. It made me realise a paragraph that I wrote did not show up on the published post. So I just rewrote and edited this one. Thank you for asking!

  4. I enjoyed this click, Parul. That oak tree is magnificent, looking so bold, tall and strong. And you look so happy in this photo. It’s like you and the tree are best friends. Certainly as you said there are other things going on in the photo. I like to think they add character to the day, giving an idea of the atmosphere. There may be lots going on around you but then there is this lovely moment of you enjoying the tree and nature. Hope all has been well with you 😊

    1. Thanks, Mabel! It’s always such a joy seeing you around. In the olden world of blogging, you are one of those folks who have always supported. I am so grateful. I loved this afternoon. It was fun and lovely. I am well – busy with work but I think life keeps pacing.
