  2. Maybe that is why at this time of my life
    I feel so comfortable surrounded by the
    old trees on my property.
    Guess I am one of them :)
    Have a wonderful day....

  12. I bet those trees always rejoice when you are amongst them!

    And I've been thinking about both my grand-mothers lately. I hope I can rise to the level of love and wisdom when my time comes to be in their shoes.

  13. The fallen tree appears as an arm and hand pointing the way into the woods, a place of quiet and solitude. The sun intrudes allowing for brilliance and shadow in equal parts onto the trunks and branches. The forest can be dark, like times in our lives. Yet, the food and bright far outweighs the dark and gloomy. A wonderful look!
