When I was a kid and did a lot of coloring, my trees were always green and conical. (also a little comical as I recall) I am glad that trees are not only green. Today I ventured out for a bit and drove down Kennewick Avenue - a tree lined street here in town. I saw a little house with a For Sale sign in the yard. The house was tiny and rather unkempt - however, in the front yard was the brightest red tree. If you lived in that house and were giving directions to your house you could say "the one with the red tree in front." Of course, only in the Fall, at just the right time, when the tree is red. Oh yeah, there were other trees that were different variations of red. There were orangey ones, burgundy ones, burnt umber, you know - those other color crayons that didn't get quite as much use. This tree though, this tree was the most beautiful red tree I have ever seen. Luckily, you can't see the house for the tree. :-)
If I decide to color again I will make my trees with all different colors.....
I didn't take a picture of the tree - but I found one close.
