Establishing a New Pine Plantation

I can't think of a better memorial to Danny.
Thanks for the photos Jake, and a tip of the hat to you for continuing to support his family.

Pretty impressive when you realize those trees are all of 14 years old.

All I can say is they are the ones that deserve the credit for continuing with Danny's work. It is truly my honor to be the one that gets to help them. If any of y'all were closer I would have to fight you off to get that honor.

Amen.

A Memorial Forest.

Hi everyone, this is Amanda, WDH's daughter. This is a picture of the other plantation - the one that my daddy planted in January 2018. The trees are in their 6th growing season. We tried to find the same spot as his other pictures, but I'm not sure if this is it...looked close to us. My daughter, Maddy Claire, is featured in this photo.

Thank you Amanda, thank you. That brought a tear to my eye. Jim

They are sure growing. I saw them not long after they were planted when your daddy spent part of a day with my forestry team and me. Your daddy was tremendous influence on me and a wealth of knowledge to this forum. He is sorely missed, and I am thankful to have had the opportunity to know and learn from him.

Amanda, thanks for posting.
It's been said that imitation is the most sincere form of flattery.
Following in Danny's footsteps is probably the biggest compliment that could be paid to the man that all of us on the Forum admired.
I'm looking forward to everything and anything you may contribute in the future.

Well done Amanda! The trees sure are doing their thing too. Looks like I need to get some more doughnuts over there to Maddy, so she can keep up with those trees.
