Jelena looks like a seasoned bonsai artist the way she works the wire!
You guy's are going to have great times working on trees together.
Regards,
Steven

Gday Antonio!

Did Jelena happen to attend when Marco wired Thor? Get her a shiny tracksuit top and she could be a dead ringer...

Seriously, I can well imagine it is great when they get past wanting to use the secateurs all the time. :oops:

As the Dad of a clever little girl, I thank you for posting.

Fly.
