Day 289 — Stay Out
Project 365
[for Monday, Oct. 15] According to my mom, I planted this tree when I was a kid. It was some kind of 4-H or Arbor Day assignment. But the combination of this spring’s cold snap plus the recent drought have proven too much for it to handle. So it’s dying.

I had a few brief flings with New York, but it was…
