I especially love the square trees in the Palais Royal and also in the garden directly behind Notre Dame (where I actually have seen a tree trimmer at work).Alexahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03620873522996260383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8865814823931525026.post-3267626381537096152010-02-08T15:43:43.528-06:002010-02-08T15:43:43.528-06:00Harriet,

I was thinking about it last night and no, I"ve never seen them at work. I am envisioning men with coal miner hats with lights on them nipping away at the shrubbery with fingernail scissors! :) They have to do it at night, you never see it in the day!<br /><br />Starman,<br />I took that bottom photo on my first trip at TUileries. It has fascinated me ever since as to how they get that high and manage to keep them at exactly the same height!Virginiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01152464973355194995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8865814823931525026.post-46517828150668545392010-02-08T14:45:04.522-06:002010-02-08T14:45:04.522-06:00Especially love your banner.
