Monkey Puzzle

Kristie was so excited when she was here in Washington and she saw the Monkey Puzzle Tree from Chile.  I can’t remember what she called it.  Chile and Washington have similar climates and the tree grows well in both places.  Here is a picture of the tree in bloom.

Ok I’m just kidding.  The blossoms were from some nearby flowering bushes.  The part about the tree being from Chile is true though.

Good one Dan! When Kris sees this she will LOL and roll on the floor.

Just got an emergency email from Kristi--she's been sick for to weeks with flu and sinus infection and needs help so I'm flying to UT tomorrow. She's too sick to roll on the floor but she'll be surprised when she gets well enough to read the blog.

I love that tree. I think that there is a great big one growing in the cullens yard in Forks.

Wow you had me there. I was like, "no they aren't", and then scrolled down to see you admit it. Funny.

I was just about to say "are you serious? I've never seen an araucaria in bloom"
