I came across a 19th century illustration of the Morton estate and it showed the many trees he planted on his own property. I'd love to visit it in person! He sounds like such a fascinating and influential man.Carla Gadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01793809172905144101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4271375082145370896.post-20742340637835690912015-03-19T23:59:03.206-04:002015-03-19T23:59:03.206-04:00We planted trees when visiting Israel one time.

I live in Nebraska, and Arbor Day is a "big deal" to us. If you're ever in this part of the country, you'd enjoy visiting Morton's gorgeous home in Nebraska City. It's quite a place, and his passion for trees is carried on with all kinds of associated events at nearby Arbor Lodge.
