“Trees are sanctuaries. 

Whoever knows how to speak to them, 

whoever knows how to listen to them,

  • This post is amazing. Thank you Kate. My friend Dr. Jim Conroy, The Tree Whisperer, and his partner in communication with nature Basia Alexander, just spent 3 days in Cambria listening and talking to our trees. Asking them how they are doing and what they need.

  • True, but in this photo, there are at least two that are serious potential hazards to anything in their path when they finally "decide" to go.

  • Speaking with the trees and bees. My motto and a mantra. Yay, Hesse. Yay, Kate, for sharing this space in this way.
