Under the Winter Cloak



Notice the recent winter snows that drape graciously on our garden’s trees. Remember the tidbit of information in this week’s brain teaser. It is best when heavy winter snows accumulate on a tree’s branches, that you leave it be. Let nature take its course. Be patient and enjoy the beauty of the snow. The inspirational thought for the day is by Antoine de Saint-ExupĂ©ry, The Wisdom of the Sands, translated from French by Stuart Gilbert. “The tree is more than first a seed, then a stem, then a living trunk, and then dead timber. The tree is a slow, enduring force straining to win the sky.”
