mmmmm treeeeees Imagine you're some guy in the woods, and a random guy comes out of the trees. he hasn't talked to people in a while and is running out of food. you are confused. turns out, it's just good old tree loving John muir. this is normal. you give him food, and he and his donkey go on their way, stopping, measuring, looking at, and probably talking to trees.
