Hello,
This project fits in with my plans for the year around a
beautiful maple tree at the front of my school. I have a
class blog that I could put my information on, or I can put

this project, and I look forward to hearing from you, Tracy

Malinda,

I finally took the pictures of my tree! The kids are so
excited... I am trying to access the site to put my pictures
on, but it won't come up for me. Is it having trouble?

Is there anyone who can give me the new web page address for
the "Our Tree Named Project"? I would really appreciate it,
