Similarly when you have several dozen trees you can't usefully say "I left the pruning shears by that tree with the leaves on it" But you can say you lift the pruning shears by the Stacy Tree and communicate a precise location Some of our trees were named rather quickly so we could stop losing the prun- - et ‘k 4 5 5 - er 4(4:' 1 5 1 7 1 Tree But we also name trees to please some little shaver when he visits his namesake And it's fun to watch the kid and his tree grow up togeth- - I l' - 1 sentimental reasons because it helps us to remember our missing mothers — the Pauline Tree and the Bea 4 N ! - k ": i Wolves" If I had been born to such a tribe I wouldn't have been given the name Wilbert at birth by cruel parents as I was Instead they would have waited until I grew up to become a newspaper opinion writer and would have named me Tussels With Politicians or Loafs With Legislators or Frolics With Fools We have named some of our trees arbitrarily in the Wilbert fashion We have named them after relatives Just to give our kin the honor of a tree in our yard hoping they might visit more often because of it We name some trees for - S( ' By Dan Klinglesmith celadon and azure colored tiles sheath Canary the exterior walls in kaleidoscopes of geometric design Courtyard fountains tinkle like the rustle of Spanish doubloons Placid pools mirror the sky between circular ripples of dragonfly kisses The Alhambra palace of sultans and Spain's last sigh of the Moor Boabdil Granada's last Moorish prince expressed his sorrow in just this way upon forfeiting his earthly paradise to the Catholic :monarchs Ferdinand and Isabella in 1492 The final vestige of generations of Moslem occupation had been lost Nearly 500 years later sighs can still be heard This time of exasperation Today crushing crowds ascend to this Andalusian stronghold like an invad- ing army causing even the most intrepid traveler to take a deep breath summon patience and press on to see this jewel of Moorish Spain But if you have a day it's possible to experience the peaceful magic of this Arabian fantasy without the throng Here are a few suggestions The complex is divided into three areas: The Alcazaba the Palaces and the Generalife Tickets are issued with separate tear off stubs that allow entrance to the sights Start your tour in the morning with a stroil through the Alcazaba Stone ramparts the size of loccinotives track around the foot of tLe Alcazaba ist cne time this fortn:s area of the Alharatra held the rogue col: many invaders firinly- and rezio'is?-Its and 'brood over tritorsect Viz the ta11J tri the valley below A re- ' pth1 citmb to the tcp of the ' TZ zentrics once scanned : : Cltg view of the t !!a tclow and tl ' ' '''' : ' ' Nevada mouatain to find a perch a i t t3 watchiiig the city With Column t t last sigh of the Moor descriptive That practice forms the basis of the name of the title character in the F-- 2 ! -- II that the name could be more See 1 0 Fl January 26 1992 ' e':- - Ie t"-- Ty:Th i 1 i -- 1 4 C IBill "Dances i iii 1 1 t''t 0 I NIbt4 r '" A 1 4 movie RAVEL SUNDAY 5 ttaktrtis Zt -- ::': t ere I 4':)e- - : - - - -7 4 434 - 37" - 1 - ' I 1 1 -- -7 40Mitoiduirikaiww - I i -I - !
