During Spring Break 2006, I participated in the ASB program and went to Southern Pines, North Carolina to plant the Long Leave Pines. If I remember correctly, we planted about 1000 trees during the trip...knowing that not all of them are going to survive.
The size of the seedling in Spring 2006 (almost the size of a carrot)
Recently, one of our group member went back to Southern Pines to check out the trees and I can't believe how fast they have grown.
The relative size of the tree in 2009 (photo taken from facebook).
I am really glad that my babies are growing well and I really hope that one day, I can go back to Southern Pines for a visit...haha...and I am sure that by the time I go, they will definitely be taller than me :P
