This towering pine in my barnyard has sheltered many a cow, sheep, llama, dog, chicken and goat over the years. I wish there were more of them on my land. It's just so beautiful, especially when the boughs are heavy with snow. The little farmhouse. where the old farmer lives, has a few of these gigantic pines in the tiny yard, too close to the house. Doesn't make sense. Did they think they wouldn't grow so big? If one falls it will surely crush the house. They can't give shade to the sheep squeezed together on a little lawn (even though my sheep have run over there many times to get under them.) I'll just consider it one of the many mysteries of life and this farm.
