Boundry Tree
My first and most favorite tree was cut down at the end of April 2009. She stood on the left side of the bridge on the Lake Bluff side of the forest. For the 14 years I've known her she has always worn a Lake County Forest Preserve sign with the word "Boundry". You can read an email I sent to author/activist Derrick Jensen and his response here.
