High Five Friday for Birch Trees

Birch trees are probably one of the best reasons to live in the interior of Alaska.  They provide green shade in the summer and golden rustling leave in the fall. In the winter they stand as tall sentinels in the woods neither light nor dark. One can easily see through them and they can simply hide you among their texture and shadows.

Simple and complex at the same time.   High five for trees of all shapes and size.  Have a great weekend everyone!
