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 one that got away from me….
I was away from home for a few weeks whilst on holiday.
I left the garden pretty much to its own devices other than the irrigation system that was left in place. -

Howdy once again from Texas where it’s blazing hot, so hot they are melting iron in the parking lot and the local pancake house is cooking eggs on the hoods of cars! What the heck, one wouldn’t expect anything else in Texas this time of the year other than lack of rain and excessive heat. Myself, I’ll take the heat over the cold anytime as we have chilled air in Texas!
SYNCHRO ERP’s global implementation manager was recently flying from Seattle to Newark and I tracked the flight using the wonders of the Wild West Web. Sometimes we just need to sit back and reflect on all the wonders of what the internet has brought to us. Not that long ago, if one wanted a flight status; the only option was to call the airline. Today, with all of the interconnectivity of the “dots” everything is seemingly in real time.
