Two palm trees

Nearby the North 1st street exit of I-237, there is a huge open area. I heard the land belongs to Cisco. But they never do anything there. The last 6 years, all I see is a wild unused land. There are two long time resident though. A tall palm tree, and a shorter one next by.

There are no other trees in this land, so these two palm trees really stand out. Everyday, they seems to enjoy their quite moment, dancing together under the slow wind, and watching the busy vehicles drive along I-237. In windy days, these two trees hold hands tightly to stay firm. In rainy days, the tall palm tree will be a gentleman and block the rain for his partner. All these days they support each other, living strong in the busy silicon valley. Although they seem to stay there alone, they are not lonely.

Recently, there are some activity starting in this land. Looks like people are going to build some construction. I hope the owner of this land will keep the palm trees there. Because everyday when we drive along I-237, we like to see these two old buddies, waving hands to us.
