Perfect Tree

It's officially Autumn and here's the Official Tree:























It belongs to someone named John, or Johnny, with a last name I've heard pronounced a half-dozen ways. What I remember is Johnny Eubanks, which has evolved, in my head, to Bob Eubanks, who hosted the original Newleywed game, which debuted in 1966.

This tree is not owned by Bob Eubanks, though. I'm sure of that. Bob lives somewhere in California, I'm guessing, and doesn't own a little pickup truck and is most likely not a carpenter. Johnny Eubanks, aka something else, does own a little pickup truck and is a carpenter. And is the owner of this fabulousness....

  1. What wonderful colours - one thing I miss in the north of New Zealand is the wonderful autumn colours of colder climates.

  7. When I lived on the east coast, I used to pick out a tree during the fall that I called THE TREE. It always looked a bit like yours.
