The Rings of Time........
It is difficult to tell the size from the picture but the width of the tree was considerable bigger than I am tall.
The rings on the tree showed what it had endured during its life, much like the wrinkles on my face, where it had good years and bad.
As the tree was 4 times older than me it puts into perspective the brief stay that we mere mortals have on this earth and the importance of spending our time wisely.
Here is hoping your time on this earth is long, productive & enjoyable.

The Allotment
2019 has been a better year for the vegetable patch – primarily because there has been an unbroken water supply unlike last year when there was little or no water for a 6 week period.
It is now not only the very warm part of the year – we are around 40c every day – but the vegetables are ripe and ready.
