Farmer Planted Trees To Make Heart-Shaped Memorial To Dead Wife


From an article at The Telegraph:
Dedicated Winston Howes, 70, spent a week planting each oak sapling after his wife of 33 years Janet died suddenly 17 years ago. 
He laid out the fledgling trees in a six-acre field but left a perfect heart shape in the middle - with the point facing in the direction of her childhood home. 
The labour of love has now blossomed into a mature meadow - a peaceful oasis where Winston can sit and remember his wife of 33 years. 
His meadow cannot be seen from the road and has remained a family secret until a hot air balloonist took this photograph from the air.
