Nyah, it is short, but there y'are! :) Thunderstorms are awesome. Very much so. Although sometimes they shake the house enough for me to go *meep*. Lol I love willows. There were a few in the schoolyard during grade four and everyone congregated around them and the little bridge and the creek. Sadly, they got old and there was worry that they'd die and break without warning and that their thick branches would squish a kid. Or something, I actually don't know why they cut them down, but they did, and it was such a very sad sight. So I wish you luck in your willow planting endeavours, oh yes I do. We have a weeping birch, it is kind of similar, but it is small and cute. And hides all the weeds I need to get at.... :\
