STIHL Tour des Trees!

It's
the
STIHL
Tour
des
Trees...














and
we're
all
decked
out!

Water
bottles...

Socks...

Cool
helmets...

We
have
STIHL
everywhere!

Some
people
are
sporting
the latest
in
biker
wear...

It's
a
mitten...

It's
a
pouch...

I
think
it's
a
Thneed.

We
have
all
kinds
of
bikers...

with
fancy
biking
shoes...

and
with
not.

And
there
are
bikes
for
cool...

and
for
comfort...

We
are
here...

at
Virginia
Beach...

to
bike
for
trees...

Wave
to
our
fans!

We
take
off...

from
the
Virginia
Aquarium...

led
by our
trusty
red
Fire Engine!

We
take
the road
today
for
bicycles!

It's
kinda
cold...

but
we
are
tough!
















We
spin into
First Landing
State Park....

to
plant
a tree...

a
willow
oak
in the name
of Suzie...

Suzie
was
an
adventurer -

much
like
my kids...

She lived
life to the fullest!

One day
she was struck by a car
and killed
crossing the street
near home
to get a cup
of coffee.

Now,
in
Suzie's
name,

her
Mom
is out
planting
trees

all
over
the
USA

and
all over
the
world!

So
we
plant
a
Suzie Tree...

with
help!

And
we
leave
tree-grams
hanging
in our
Suzie tree.

Now
we're
back
on
bikes...

Side
by
side...

Seven
more
miles...

to
the
STIHL
facility...

where
another
tree
awaits
us...

and
a
snack!

a
quick
bite
to eat...

and
we
head to
the
tree site...

Here
they
come!

It's
a
magnolia
this time...

Cheers
to the
crew
from
STIHL!

Let
me
help!

Messy
hands!

ready
for
our
last leg...

back
to
the
aquarium...

for
lunch...

and
fellowship!

It's been
a
great
day
of
trees...

and
bicycles.


What
a
great
combination!
