  3. I should visit my dentist. And in our old elm-tree we have one big half-decayed branch, too. Another one already falled down last summer; none damages, yet.

    We got also one oak, but she is healthy.

    approaching
    spring storm --
    quivering branches

  7. I had to look for the verb. More an impeachment then a denouncement.
