Incompatible Types

When I compile the program I get an error message 

    Treet treets = new Treet[0];                                                                               
                   ^                                                                                           
./com/teamtreehouse/Treets.java:24: error: incompatible types: Treet[] cannot be converted to Treet            
      treets = (Treet[]) ois.readObject();                                                                     
               ^                                                                                               
./com/teamtreehouse/Treets.java:32: error: incompatible types: Treet cannot be converted to Treet[]            
    return treets;

I'm sure I have everything right. Here is what the main class looks like

Treet[] reloadedTreets = Treets.load();
    for(Treet reloaded : reloadedTreets){
      System.out.println(reloaded);
    }

Never mind, I've figured it out.

Thanks,

You seem to be mixing up whether treets should be a single Treet or an array of Treets (i.e., Treet[]). Given the plural, you probably want the latter.
