IF YOU GO DOWN TO THE WOODS TODAY!!

The elephant

Don't go down to the woods today or your in for a big surprise!

I know i'd had a pint, but it looks good to me..xx

THE PULPIT YEW..

This Amazing tree is close by and i'd never even heard of it. It's again a yew tree though not as old as the previous one, but still a few thousand years i'd say...........I don't know the history of the pulpit but looking at how the hand rail is embedded it's been there for quite sometime.

The photos can't do it justice, it sit's in it's place perfectly......And i can't help but ponder about the first vicar / priest to do a sermon from it, why? whose idea? it really was a statement the christian preacher preaching from on this very pagan spot, from in it in fact Hhhmmmmmm it makes you think!!!!

The atmosphere in it is benevolent on a sunny morning.... i wouldn't be tempted there on a dark night though.................

Sorry!

I can't seem to be able to upload photos at the moment, as soon as i can there'll be a whole forest to catch up with......

ROOT'S.

Three small photos , showing how survival is possible as long at least a part of the tree is rooted strongly and in good soil...

What does this tell us about ourselves?

Whether it be a home, your religion, or a person or your family, as long as a strong foundation is there we can overcome any trial that arises in our path and be stronger for it.......

These 3 have suffered droughts , winds.,, cows and sheep eating the new leaves and scratching and rubbing themselves,,,,, but also leaving the gift of there manure as nourishment..........

YEW.
