Description โ€œBe of good cheer. Do not think of today's failures, but of the success that may come tomorrow. You have set yourself a difficult task, but you will succeed if you persevere; and you will find a joy in overcoming obstacles.โ€
(Helen Keller)

So these are beech trees...I wondered what they looked like. My street is named after them.

I think beech trees are among the most beautiful that we have here in Western Europe. Did they introduce them with you, too? Or are they of another species?

I think they were originally brought here from the UK.
