been steadily increasing in recent months. Broken win-dows are most o f ten the on-ly property damaged, al-though extensive damage is sometimes reported with-in some school buildings. Officials believe most dam-age is caused by otherwise "good" kids in good neigh

Fa To

al Accident <es 16-Year-Old

Humidity Is High!

A mishap Friday night claimed the life of a 16-year-old boy as he was pushing his motorcycle on Burton Street near San Marie Drive. Kyle Scoti Fincelli, of 6072 Del Cano S.E., died one hour after the accident despite efforts of an intern and doctor at the scene to save him.

Dale VanderVeen, 18, of 2 6 3 0 Kraft , was unable to sec the youngster as he pushed his motorcycle on the traveled portion of the road. Evidently the lack of lights or reflectors kept VanderVeen from seeing the boy until he was too close to avoid the accident. He stated that he was traveling between 35 and 4 0 MPH when he hit the youngster and motorcycle.

Pincelli died of neck fracture and head and chest in-juries at 9 :40 Friday night. Scott was to have been a junior at Forest Hills High School.

He is survived by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Gabriel Pincelli; two brothers, Frank of Door, and Daniel, at home; two sisters, Mrs. Connie Cline of Lansing and Mrs. Linda Hall of Guatamala City, Guatemala; and several aunts and uncles.

Oh, My, It's Muggy-Periods of thunderstorms and the sighting of one tornado last week, south-west of Lowell, has prompted area residents to seek the cooler side of life, as the humidity con-tinues to make life just plain miserable. Friday night's storm saw several trees fallen, people left without electricity, and many taking shelter in their basements.

Friday afternoon a tornado was sighted over Campau Lake, south of Alto, with other areas reporting heavy rains and hail.

Jabber . . . by Jane

* The late Eleanor Roosevelt once had a syndicated newspaper column called "My Day" in which she wrote

4 ^ a b o u t many interesting and exciting experiences which f would occur in the course of her daily life.

Now, I would not presume to compare this column with Eleanor's "My Day , " or the interesting days in her

; life with the usual events in my days. 1 A good day is waking up in the morning and finding

the sun is shining-an exciting day might be, af ter a se-cond look, discovering the horses have broken out and are quietly munching their breakfast in the yard . It

' m a k e s a nice pastoral scene-bu t at 6 o'clock in the morning?!!

However, every once in a while and when you least expect it, the unusual does happen.

On a Friday, I learned that a Mr. Robert Carroll, Jr., a writer for the " L u c y " show starring Lucille Ball, was here visiting relatives in the area. The "Boss" said, "Why

, don' t you talk to h im-even if it 's only by ' phone . " ''Which sounded like a fine idea, as I had just washed my

hair and had a head full of curlers. Several telephone calls later, I was able to reach Mr. Carroll and he gra-

ciously offered to meet with me the next 'week.

Carroll is married to the former Norms Jean Hag-lund of Lowell and he and daughter, Chris, were visit-

Robert Carroll, M a k e s M y Day. ing Norma's mother , Mrs. Orma Barber of Lowell, and her sister, Mrs. Fred (Lorraine) Stover of Grand Rapids.

My two acquaintances with celebreties of any calibre consist of Jack Paar 's autograph on a paper napkin and being in Grand Rapids the same day that Richard Nix-on was the re - I d idn ' t see h i m - b u t we were both there!

In anticipation of interviewing Mr. Carrol), I began to think of questions I might want to a sk -and frankly, just how did one conduct an interview?-being the some kind of sub-cub reporter that I am.

Sunday dawned warm and sunny. A good day. I decided I had be t ter , again do something about my hair. The humidity had created a disaster in Uial area. So, it was up with the curlers once more.

About 3 o'clock in the af ternoon, my hair in curlers, dressed in faded shorts and barefooted, I saw approach-ing a strange gentleman in a bright red shirt making his way through the dogs and cats across the lawn.

Some premonition told me this was Mr. Carroll and I dashed quickly upstairs and was frantically removing curlers when a family member informed me that what I fesred was true. It was, indeed. Mr. Carroll. However, calm was restored when he sent a message telling me not to worry about the curlers and, besides, "he had already used the 'caught with the curler' bit in five epi-

sodes of " lucy" already."

Around the kitchen table, Robert Carroll and I had our "interview." An assortment of people kept coming in and out but mostly they remained to listen as we were given a sometimes serious, but more of ten humor-ous, key-hole view of what writing for television is really like.

With a ruddy complexion, blue eyes, wavy reddish grey hair and a well-trimmed beard to m a t c h - a n inter-esting f a c e - b u t also the face of a man who has suffer-ed. Stricken with osteomyelitis of the hip at the age of twelve, he had spent much time in bed over a period of years and during which time he underwent thirty oper-ations on his hip. He started writing to while away the hours spent in bed . Now, apparently cured, the slight limp that remains only adds to a certain uniquesness of character.

Carroll's wife, Norma, was at one time a secretary for Paul Henning, creator of the "Beverly Hillbillies," and the first "Bob Cummings" show. She later became a publicist.

Carroll's first j o b was as an usher at CBS before the start of his writing career.

He writes with a partner. Madelyn Davis, with whom he has been associated for 25 years. Together they have written 752 scripts for both radio and television.

When asked about the mechanics of writing, he said, "We sit at our desks facing each o the r -hop ing for an idea -vou get up and walk around the room, look at your w a t c h - a n d hope it 's lunch t ime."

"It takes about two days to write a script and you always try for a laught in the third or four th line. And sometimes it may take three days to get that funny line." He also noted that names, addresses and phone numbers must always be ficticious.

There are 24 episodes of the " L u c y " show with thiee gioups of two writers-each group writing eight or nine episodes. All scripts must be submitted to Lu-cille Ball for her approval. They shot for four weeks and then a week off , completing about March or April.

Mondays take up writing and re-writing - Tuesdays, a full dress rehearsal with costumes and props and Thursday is filming day.

Carroll has the highest regard for Gale Gordon who plays "Har ry" on the "Lucy" show and who, he says, is the greatest comic reactor in the world.

Only three episodes of next season's Lucy Show had been filmed when Lucy broke her leg. The accident presented a problem for the writers, for as he said, "What are you going to do for 30 minutes with Lucy in a cas t - in b e d ? "

Carroll has also written for Dinah Shore Specials and for the Debbie Reynolds S h o w - " u n t i l it fo lded," he said, raising those expressive shaggy brows, wliich could say more than words.

A writer is never really away from his work for there is the never-ending search for new ideas and new situa-

tions, whether he's in California or Switzerland, a place he loves.

"Though Madelyn and I have more fun working than any people 1 know, I think my ult imate reward would be to be able to live six months in Switzerland and six months in the Caribbean when 1 re t i re - in a few years-hopeful ly . In the meantime I'll just enjoy every minute of every day."

The interview was over but before he departed I received a kiss on both cheeks and on the h a n d - a mem-ory 1 shall tuck away along with Jack Paar 's autograph.

I waved good-bye wondering how I could wash the dishes without getting my right hand wet.

AND THAT WAS MY DAY.

Lowell Ledger-Suburbin Life, August 24,1972

Browers Sell Tavern An enthusiastic temperance meeting August 31,

1892, v/as largely an indignation meeting on account of the proposed saloon in the thriving community of Alto.

Successful in their attempt to block in-coming busi-ness, it wasn't until some five years later that workmen and the interested promoters got the project underway.

Today, some 80 years later, the one-time saloon is the most busiest business in t o w n - t h e reason, those de-licious, thick succulent ham sandwiches, homemade bean soup, and the friendly atmosphere.

Last week, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Brower (Vera) who have operated the tavern fcr the past four years gave up their ownership to Mr. and Mrs. Jerome Rogers. This is the ninth lime the tavern has changed hands since it was transformed from a saloon to a tavern.

Julius Wester was the first owner. From there it went to John Young. Charlie Dryer, Paul Brower, Geo-rge Patts. Al Schmidts, Raymond Pitsch, and Joe Brow-

ers. When the Browers took over in 1968, they went in-

to an extensive remodeling program, adding new furni-ture and equipment, and revamping the kitchen area.

Mrs. Brower revealed that being in business in Alto brought back a lot of memories to her as she went to school there during her childhood. "We've enjoyed meeting and making many great friends, and renewing old acquaintances," she added.

Vera will remain as a part-time employee with the new o w n e r s . . . on her days of f , the Browers will take a trip to their cabin at Irons or do the things they most

like to do.

The Rogers, who have taken over the apartment above the tavern on Linfield Avenue, comc from Coop-ersville, where he was employed as a construct ion work-er. The only immediate changes that will be incorpor-ated is a name change from Brower's Tavern to Jerry's Bar. They are open daily 6 to 12 midnight on week days and 7 to 2 a.m. on Saturdays.

The Rogers, Jerome and Lois, with their ton, Kyle, are looking forward to their new buiines* venture in Alto.

Jacquelin Carol Shade has been selected Outstanding Young Woman of America for 1972, according to an announcement made by the Alto Garden Club. She was nominated by the organization earlier this year on the basis of her achievements.

Now in its eights year, the Outstanding Young Wom-en of America Program recognizes young women between the ages of 21 and 35 for their contributions to the bet-terment of their communities, professions and country, the Garden Club revealed.

Mr. and Mn, Sam Yeiter, 900 Fallasburg Park Drive, Lowell, have been presented several awards for outstanding tales and recruiting achievements as Tupperware distributors. The awards were pre-sented to Ida and Sam this week during the 1972 Tupperware "Joyland Jubilee" in DeKalb, Illi-nois.

For attaining the recruiting goal, the Yelters working with Seal-Craft Sales of Grand Rapids, received a ceramic high-top shoe designed by Tupperware and engraved 'Big Step in Recruit-ing." They were further honored with a specially designed toy soldier music box with the inscrip-tion 'Marching in Tune to Sale,' in recognition of their sales achievements during the past year.

T h i s a n d T h a t , Pressure canning is the only recommended method

for canning low-acid foods.

Such short-cut methods as "blanket ," "aspirin," "cold water ," "vinegar-sugar-*alt" and "canning pow-ders" do not insure against spoilage.

Low-acid foods include all vegetables and the new low-acid tomatoes. The boiling water bath method may be used for fruits and pickled vegetables.

Michigan schools are not adequately preparing their students for the world of work, according to a report issued by the Michigan State Chamber of Commerce.

With a little reorganization in personnel and curri-culum, schools could cut the number of drop-outs and increase the number of jobs their graduates find right out of high school, the report says. Today's schools are not making adeqtjate pjpyUioquf^r the 60 to 70 per-cent of their graduates who do not go on to college or the 28 percent that eventually drop out.

Producers can be better assured of equitable applica-tion of set-aside provisions in the 1973 Wheat and Feed Grain Program because payment deductions for less than average quality set-aside land are being increased. For wheat and feed grain farms, when low quality acreage is offered for set-aside-that is acreage not rep-resentative of land on which the farm's crops ate g r o w n - t h e entire payment will be based on the pro-ductivity of the set-aside land.

If you consider yourself an average residential elec-tric customer of Consumers Power Company, chances are your electric service was interrupted for only about one-and-a-half hours out of the 8,760 hours which made up the year 1971.

According to the utility's 1971 electric system per-formance report, reliability of service to customers for the year averaged 99.984 percent.

That means a homeowner who used 6000 to 7000 kilowatt hours of electricity was without power only a total of 84 minutes during the year. Putting it another way, the company's average electric customer was with-out elccliic servicc .016 percent of thft year, or one min-ute , 37 seconds per week.

Emphysema (pronounced em-fih-SEE-ma) is a di-sease which causes the lungs to become enlarged. The name is a Greek word meaning inflation. Although re-cording procedures vary in different states, it is estima-ted that over 16,000 Americans die of this disease each year. In Michigan in 1970,1 ,384 deaths were caused by emphysema. And it was the ninth leading causc of death in the state.

Having trouble with burglars? One way to protect yourself is to take advantage of the "Operation Identi-fication" program co-sponsored by the Farm Bureau, Lowell Police, and Lowell Boy Scouts. It's simple. Just phone the Lowell Area Chamber of Commerce office, indicating your interest, and one of the scouts will call at your home and all your valuable possessions will be engraved with identifying information.

Driver Unhurt As

Truck Rolls Over Donald Senneker, 48, of 782 Bungalow Street, Wy-

oming, escaped serious injury after the truck he was driving collided with a car driven by Philip Schell, of 3719 Huhal, Thursday morning.

Schell was southbound on Forest Hill Avenue and pulled out into the path of the Godwin Plumbing truck, driven by Senneker, which was eastbound on Cascade Road.

The truck, loaded with equipment and pipe racks, flipped on its top after spinning and skidding. Although extensive damage was sustained by both vehicles. Sen-neker believes the sturdy pipe racks absorbed most of the impact and kept the cab from collapsing.

V The 90th birthday anniversary of the Rev. Hartwcll

Gosney, associate minister of the First United Metho-dist Church of Lowell, was recognized recently at a re-ception in his honor.

The event took place in the church's fellowship hall following the worship service and was hosted by the United Methodist Women. Birthday cake, punch and coffee were served to the members and fr iends of the church by Evelyn Barnes, Marian Krebs, Ann Mulder and Lila Thaler.

Special guests In addition to the Rev. Gosney were his son and daughter-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. J o h n Gosney, and the Robert Webber family, all of Grand Rapids.

Mr. Gosney has been preaching since 1933, when he became a lay minister after many years' work In the re-tall business. His appointments included churches in Marne, Nunica and South Wyoming.

As associate minister In the Lowell Church , he serves as worship assistant each Sunday morning and occasion-ally fills the pulpit. Several times a year he is called on to substitute In one or more of his former churches. In addition, he spends many, many hours In hospital and home visits.

For a number of years, he and his late wife , Georgia, were the official Nursery Home Visitors fo r the church, calling on families with new babies or small children. As a result, Mr. Gosney Is a very popular visitor In the nurs-ery and kindergarten Sunday School classes, where he Is enthusiastically greeted as " m y grown-up fr iend."

On the day of his reception this incredible man not only preached at the two church services b u t drove through the early morning fog to a breakfast at the John Pot ter home, where he gave the devotional medi-tation for the Three M's Adult Fellowship.

The community joins with the church members In congratulating Rev. Gosney and extending best wishes for the coming year.

Hello from Yugoslavia!

At last I arrived in Skopje! My family is so beauti-ful! Georgie is 12 years old, speaks little English, Mar-ica, 17, is the interpreter for the entire family, includ-ing Mom and Dad. Marica is coming to the United States as an Exchange Student this summer. She told me that she got my name, application and picture Wed-nesday, the day I left America, but they had known for some time that they would get an exchange stu-dent .

My father is a financial director for one of the large department stores about a block from our apar tment . My mother is very important in electronics of a steel company. Mom calls me " b a b y " because 1 am so small as compared to them. My father is 6 ' 3" , balding red hair and blue eyes, my mother is 5 ' 8 " tall and has dark curly hair and a wonderful smile! Marcia is tall. 5' 6" , and looks like her father. Georgie (Gecko) is 5 ' 5 " and only 12 years old. So you can see why the nickname when I'm only 4 ' 10"! •

Where I am living is in the province of Macedonia. There is a lot c f construction of very modern buildings because on July 2 6 , 1 9 6 3 , at 5:17 a.m. most cf the town cf Skopje was destroyed by an earthquake. There are only a few remaining buildings left. The town clock stands though and it says 5:17.

We live in a four-room apartment. I have a terrace outside my bedroom. 1 can see a building across the street that is being built.

At 2 p.m. all work stops and you go home for lunch which is usually soup, bread, meat, potatoes, goulash, and a salad! I can never finish! Afterwards you get a drink cf either mineral water (carbonated water that tastes like alka-selzer) or milk which has chunks of cot-tage cheese floating on top.

During the day my sister and I tour the town. The town is very large over 4 million people. Because it was once ruled by Romans, Serbos, Turks, Bulgarians, and Germans, you see many different things. Some cf the old parts cf the city not destroyed by the earthquake are interesting. Across f rom my apartment house is the river where peasants f rom the country come fcr a bath or to wash their clothes in it. On the opposite bank there is a Turkish castle in which Marica says were many battles. There is a great wall of stone surround-ing it for the ruler always had a harem of women and these women were never to be seen by a common man! There faces were always covered!

At night everyone either walks around town or enter-tains guests in their homes. The young people go to the " K " or center of town and sit on huge steps that are built along the river. It looks like a rock concert should be going on but here you just meet friends and talk. On the average there are two thousand kids here at a time!

My sister and I discuss America a lot, she expresses a dislike fcr cur place in Viet-Nam. Kennedy is the fam-ily idol. Marica has the impression that a lot o f riots go on in cur country, that the black and white are divided, she was surprised to see black students in c u r school yearbook.

I spoke my first word "Debro" which means good, to my mother because she asked me if 1 liked the food. My whole family clapped and laughed!

1 will close now and write again soon! 1 want to thank everyone who helped make thM fantastic trip possible.

Most sincerely, Melissa Lake

Two Like Items

SPECIAL For The Price Of One!!

The addition of the new Forest Hills Northern High School brings the number of senior high schools in the O-K Conference to 24, and with the expanded growth a reshuffling of two of the three divisions within the

league. Already the second largest high school conference in

the state, before the acquisition of the new Forest Hills Northern 'Huskies,' it had been determined long ago that schools in each of the three divisions would be re-aligned according to growth.

The Blue Division of eight high schools of smaller en-rollment remains unchanged. Of the middle-size Class B Schools lenison. Northview and Rogers will be mov-ed from the White Division to the larger Class A (or near Class A) division members. The three new Red Di-vision competitors will jo in East Grand Rapids, Kent-wood, Grandville, Rockford and West Ottawa.

The realignment f o the White Division will include Godwin, who steps o u t o f the bigger Red Division schedule, and both Forest Hills Central and Forest Hills Northern.

In reality, the new Forest Hills Northern is current-ly a branch of the Forest Hills Central enrollment, and both take on Class B status in the O-K White Division.

According to the master schedule received from the league president James C. Czanko, Forest Hills North-em jumps into the White Division sports schedule with both feet. For the first time since the league was divid-ed into three divisions, each has an equal eight high schools.

Along with the three new White Division additions, are the veteran teams of Hudsonville, Kenowa Hills, South Christian. Wyoming Park and Zeeland. The un-changed Blue Division has been altered only from with-in.

Inflation has also invaded the sports activity of the O-K conference. The price of t ickets for athletic events for the 1972-73 school year will be $1.25 for adults (no change) and 75 cents for s tudents (an increase of 25 cents).

The first vestiges of high school sports were condi-tioning sessions in preparation for the football season Monday. This is strictly non-contact with the emphasis placed on unkinking little used muscles during the sum-mer.

Monday. August 28, is the first day of football tice, with the first competitive game falling on F September 15. /

II prac-riday,

Ed Howe Wins Invitational Ed Howe of Beaverton drove his famed Green Hor-

net *72 Chevelle to victory in the rich $15,000 150-lap Michigan State Invitational race for late model stock cars, Saturday night at the Berlin Raceway.

Howe took over the lead from pace setter Johnny Benson after the race was restarted after Bill McCrack-en of Beaver Falls. Pennsylvania, hit the concrete re-taining wall and was never headed. He staved off repeat-ed challenges of Benson and Bob Senneker, but refused to be passed. Benson finished second followed by Rick Knotts, Ed VanderLaan and Rich Senneker, NASCAR ace Bobby Allison of Hueytown, Alabama, Jim Rob-erts. Tom Maier, Ralph Baker and John Anderson. Bob Senneker dropped out of the race on the 8 6 lap with a flat tire, while running second.

Terry Schmid scored his fourth six cylinder main event victory of the season by flashing across the finish line only inches ahead of Gene Eding. Tom Drolema was third, followed by Paul Weisner, Bob Sensiba and Gary Barnes,

Heat race winners were Pete Senneker and Dave Cut-ler and Dan Ross. Fast car dash honors went to Don Rand. Australian pursuit honors went to Harry Drolema. Jack Drolema and Baker won the consolation events.

Ed Howe was the fastest of 90 qualifiers with a 17.36 seconds dash around the one-half mile paved oval.

T^e Berlin Raceway ARCA Toledo Speedway chal-lenge race wfll highlight the two-in-one card this Satur-day night.

238 Fish

Caught

At

Derby Derby Winners-Phil-

lip Kline, Ray Alex-

ander, Steve Nov oil,

Dave Adrianie, and

Tom Alexander.

A record number of fish, 238, were caught by parti-cipants in the Moose Civic Affairs annual children's fish-ing derby Saturday morning at Smit's pond.

Casting of f at 9:30, some 3 0 eager anglers fished for two hours. T o m Alexander caught the smallest fish, 3% inches, and Dave Adrianse and Ray Alexander tied for catching the most fish-each got 30.

Catching the largest Blue gill was Phillip Kline, 8" . Ray Alexander 's 12" perch was the largest m that cate-gory, and Steve Novall's 9 " bass was big enough to win top honors.

The derby, under the chairmanship of Red Baker was planned and set u p by Ed Stormzand and Merle (Snowball) Alexander.

As the fish were measured and counted, the anglers waited in anticipation for the Moose Chuck wagon to arrive. Loaded down with goodies, the Women of the Moose joined the crew in serving hotdogs, pop, etc.

Reviving a past project of the Moose Civic Affairs Committee, plans are already being made for a bigger, better derby next year.

Eager anglers, interrupted by the camereman annual "fishing derby."

Caution Against Rabies

Incidence of rabies increases in the summer because more people spend time outdoors. Take care to know the prevention, symptoms and treatment of rabies.

Be wary of unusually affectionate or irritable ani-mals, especially dogs, skunks and foxes, which are prone to the disease, Keahey warns, A rabid animal al-so shows these symptoms: he wanders restlessly, snap-ping or biting at moving objects. He refuses food, swal-lows with difficulty and salivates. He urinates of ten and undergoes a voice change.

If you suspect an animal is rabid, stay away from him and notify local police or your county rabies in-spector.

If bitten by an animal you suspect is rabid, see your doctor immediately. If the animal is alive, it must be penned for observation. If it has died, have your doctor send it for analysis to a Michigan Department of Public Health rabies lab in Lansing, Houghton, Powers or Grand Rapids.

Depending upon time and the nature of the bite, the physician will then either wait for the lab analysis or be-gin rabies treatment immediately. While the shots may be painful, a rabies bite left untreated is fatal.

Michigan law requires that your pet be immunized against rabies by a veterinarian every other year.

Judith Kennedy Remains

In Critical Condition Bainard Sheller. 37, of 1855 Junewood Ct. , Lowell,

was slightly injured following a mishap on M-21 near Watrous Avenue.

Judith Kennedy, of 7352 Driftwood Drive, SE, re-mained in critical condition Monday with broken ribs and lacerations suffered in the accident. Judi th 's hus-band, Bruce, was unable to avoid the Sheller vehicle which swerved over the center line as it rounded a sharp turn.

Heather, 9, daughter of the Kennedy's, was treated and released with minor injuries.

Two doctors were summoned to the accident and treated the victims on the way to Blodgett Hospital.

Summer Mi lk Squeeze Soft drinks tend to squeeze milk out of children's

diet during the summer, and this can be harmful . When other drinks replace milk, diets lose their best source of calcium as well as some high quality protein and impor-tant viatmins.

To work calcium back into the diet ierve cottage cheese on fruit salads, for example. One and one-third cups of cottagecheese supplies about the same amount

of calcium as one cup of milk. Or serve cheeseburgers instead of plain hamburgers.

One and one-third ounces of American cheese or one ounce of Swiss cheese can substitute for a cup of milk

with regard to calcium. Chilled milk soups, milk shakes, and milk puddings

are other good substitutes. Somewhat less caloric than milk shakes and pudding, but comparable in calcium. are yogurt and buttermilk. A cup of either provides the same amount of calcium as a cup of milk.

Eggnogs or milk shakes with scoops of ice cream are other easy wavs to include milk during the summer. One and one-half cups of ice cream have the same amount of calcium as a glass of milk.

Thought Only Bears Slept In Caves! From my hometown of Rio with a population of

4Vi million people to another state of Minas Gerais, where my brother, Paulo and 1 spent a few days in the city of Pocos Oe Caldas.

School is about to begin and they decided for one last "Get-Away From it all.!" This time we went to Gruta do Presidente (Petropolis-city) • (Rio-state).

We got to Petropolis at 8 where we had a big 4-hour iourney to walk. It was a dirt winding road with adobe homes along the way. Then we had a little hill climb-ing; and the brush, etc. , was taller than us, but we walk-ed on. Many times I grew tired and wanted to stop and turn back, but the place we spent five days at was "Breathtaking."

A huge cave in which we slept, and flat ladened rocks in which many small falls flowed; mountains sur-rounded us, mountains so big th^t clouds came in con-

tact with them. Miles of the most beautiful creations of nature, vines covered the trees, making them look as one huge tree f rom the top of the cave.

I sat for hours on the top of this cave just looking at
