Hehe. Well heres the story (well, shortened).

It all started out with a tree! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

In my town, the city wants to build over 21,600 homes! Seriously! Well as the developers began their building, a 400 tree had been standing in the way for a 4 lane highway to be built. Of course the developers saw the tree as just any ordonary Oak. A brave man named John Quigly saw what was about to happen and emidiatly took action. He went and sat in her for 71 days. Last month (January) he was forced to come out of the tree. This didn't stop him from trying to keep the tree alive. Well see my friend Sarah is a friend of Johns and John has been a huge LotR fan, and him and Sarah would talk about it a lot. A couple of friends of Dom, and Billy had come down to the tree and John got their phone numbers and talked to them about coming down to the tree. So last Monday (January 28th), a court session was going to be held about the tree and Dom showed up! John had told us before so we could bring stuff for him to sign. It was so awesome! So thats about it!
