A (on the bus): Willow Street? There's a Willow Street? Willow's a kind of tree!
Me: Yeah, a lot of streets in Vancouver are named after trees. Like Oak Street.
A: Oh, yeah! But ... that's Heather Street. Heather's a girl's name.
Me: And a kind of plant, actually.
A: Ash Street? Ash isn't a tree.
Me: Actually, it is. Ash is the name of a kind of tree.
A: Ash is what you get when you burn a tree.
