tree id

today i escaped from the house sans kids for a few hours of tree id-ing. what a great class! i found out that the watershed (a local conservation park) has slippery elm growing there. i hope to grow some here and seeing that was quite encouraging. i now have 2 more books on my wishlist: north american trees and forest trees of illinois.
