Just include proof of your status as a warlord of an area commanding billions in natural resources, along with two forms of ID.
My yard does have a surprising number of trees.
I have big leaf aspen, quaking aspen, white aspen, maple, oak. Not in that order. Then witch hazel and black cherry, not the good kind, in the understory. Which are very small trees, a few pines, a couple of strong stands of all Pines, white pines, a little spruce but all the Pines in the deciduous forests are sickly and they die for no apparent reason. Also a couple of one off Burch and Beach, The Birches sickly, the beach is strong but not much of it.
That sounds beautiful. I just moved in a few months ago and have no idea what I have, but I know part of the lot is forest overgrown with kudzu. I daren't venture in.
If they're mature and you can find someone to illegally cut them down, /r/treelaw has taught me that you might actually have millions in damages :)
Did I mention I THINK there's crude oil and gold underneath the trees?
Ah well, no lawyer will touch that, then. Prepare to be invaded. 😰
Eh, I'll take what I can get these days.
No problem, I have GIMP installed.
The only GIMP I am familiar with is the people I accuse of being Generally Important Maga Players?
Well you should download the GNU Image Manipulation Program instead.
I use Arch btw.
