I have a special place in my heart for palm trees, because they remind me of my desert hometown.  Looking up at this one, with the sun beaming down through the palm fronds, I felt a sense of connectedness between my childhood home and my current home, my younger self and this weird, responsible, adult human I’m apparently becoming.  (When did THAT happen?)
