A man walks near trees along South Main Street in Lake Mills, Wis., adorned in symbols of affection, as residents in the area have affixed hearts to dozens of mature trees slated to be removed for a reconstruction and utility repair effort in 2018. The road, which doubles as State Highway 89, is a main thoroughfare into the city and is scheduled to be widened as part of the $5.2 million state and federally financed project. The decorations are meant as a visual tribute to the trees, many of which the city hopes to replace through a state Department of Transportation reimbursement fund.
