I would like to write that I find the “tree socks” at Anderson Park gaudy and in poor taste.

Nature is beautiful as it is. I no longer enjoy the park because it looks like a carnival. There is already too much human interference with nature. The art installation may also harm the trees.

Our children need to experience nature in its original state and develop an appreciation. This is an appalling example of “art.”

If neighbors painted their homes in these colors unhappiness would abound.
