Today's Globe has an article on tree climbing. We had the Globe photographer up in a beautuful beech for a group climb in June. He said it wasn't as bad as when he was on assignment in Colombia to photograph drug warlords and cocaine labs in the rain forest. I think he had a bit more fun climbing with us.

My friend Nancy is in the treeboat in the photo, she made her first climb that day. Her comments were something like "can I go higher?" and later, "when can I climb again?"
