Inspirational places you've worked at

[Tom at Heartwood]

I have worked in Pokhara, Nepal on a couple of occasions. I really like the street trees such as these (Pipal, sacred fig, Ficus religiosa).

This is a better image of Ficus religiosa in Pokhara.

You guys have no idea how lucky your are.

Most Everything in Canada is so young. trees, shrubs, architecture etc. we do have expansive wilderness and some old growth forest but the history coupled with man's intervention is exceptional. At a Canadian pioneer cemetary you might see Norway spruce near the 80 to hundred year mark but to hear of something in cultivation for centuries must be experienced. A ring of 20 or so White Pines where the Natives came to meet and trade may be just over 100 years old.

Our Comfort Maple i think is near 300 yrs?
