Title	Palm Drive - Trees Planted Early 1900's by Pioneer Mary Deterding, Carmichael, California
Date	2000
Description	This circa 2000 postcard shows a portion of Carmichael's Palm Drive. With the road's namesake obvious, Mary Deterding - who, with husband, Charles, bought 425 acres along the American River in 1907 - planted nearly 100 Canary Island date palms, with the trees leading to the entrance of their ranch. By 2006, only 88 of the venerable palms were left standing, their natural lifespan stretching from between 50 and 150 years.
