Hi folks I made a late afternoon  visit to Wye Island   mainly to check on the old  Holly Tree  after all the snow and winds of Feb .  As of the  a week ago the dirt road portion was closed to  car  traffic  due to mud .    I know a number of folks  were wondering about it .  
     Considering the heavy Snows and winds  it made out fairly well  one  medium size  limb  did brake out  in the back of the tree as you walk up to it  on the path .Also enjoyed a very nice sunset .
