At one time, PAX was known as the "Tree City" or something of that sort. Those days are long gone.

It has just taken on a different connotation.

Yeah, looks weird now. Guess it was for control tower line of sight clearance??
That's what I heard.

Your thread title reminded me of Goodnight Moon. Hopefully, that is not the next thing to disapear. It is sad to see forests and trees disappear. I think about that when I see a parcel of land being cleared for progress; like subdivisions, utility lines, or the like. It is inevitable, but still sad.

Sad to hear. When it comes to trees, I'm kind of a hugger. I have never understood the scorched earth method of building "neighborhoods". When we lived in Waldorf, we got new neighbors, fresh from DC. The first thing they did was cut down all of the beautiful maples in the backyard and left everything they'd cut down right where it fell. The new neighbor explained to my husband that they did it because "birds like to live in the brush".

You know what they say...a bird in the hand is worth two in the brush.
