May The Forest Be With You - I say farewell.

The TreeJedi

I've spent nearly three years on this blog and it's been an enjoyable endeavor. However, as of this evening, I'm slowing down my activity online to dedicate myself to other personal endeavors - including my art. In other words, I have other things to do.  This essentially means that I will not be posting any more reports and the blog will probably fade off into oblivion.  For now, I will keep the blog listed for the time being with my usual daily news updates (as I continually learn of important topics of interest through my Google Reader) but the 'Phil Dirt' will have sporadic commentary and the 'Links of the Week' and the 'Mini-Great Moments' will be shutting down.  Of course, 'Dilbert' remains.

Also, you can still find my link to the Dallas Trees Support Pages which is loaded with important connections to sites all over.  You may wish to bookmark that page independently. Furthermore, I will still maintain the very small Dallas Trees Discussion Group.

I'm not disappearing altogether.  You may see me in discussion groups or respond to commentary from time to time and I may yet seek other avenues of discussion in the future.  But for now, the year ahead looks to be plenty full for me and other parts of my brain need exercise.

I encourage each and every one of you to keep your attention to the future and to be patient.  I thank everyone who has given me support and good comments about this blog over the past couple of years. I hope you have enjoyed it.  I've enjoyed creating it.

Until we meet again..... keep planting.
