Barry, what is your goal for this stand? To just let it grow and see what 
happens or to "manage" it? Either choice would be interesting.

        ENTS,
        Here are 3 very similar views taken looking from our house towards the 
road, but from 3 timeperiods- 1988, 1995 and today. The 1988 view was taken 
from the front porch. The 1995 and 2009 views were taken from an upstairs 
window.

        On the left in the little plantation you see white pines. In the center 
you see Douglas-firs and on the right you see Japanese black pines. Many of 
those died a few years ago. The Douglas-fir directly behind the maple in the 
yard had both its tops broken off in a storm several months ago, so it's not 
really visible in the view.

        How about that growth in the intervening years? Amazing. 
        In the 1988 and 1995 views you can see the trees in front of the house 
across the road, which is about 800 feet or more from our house.

        Barry
