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.

Start up your engines
I’m a huge Formula 1 fan and for diplomatic reasons I won’t divulge my preferred team.
I am awaiting though to see the new style of car as they will be unveiled very soon with the season getting properly on the way on March 25th.

An Old Inn
A group of us occasionally try and find a restaurant we have not eaten at before.
Two years ago whilst visiting a small village ( Alfanate in Southern Spain) that was having its cherry festival – Its major income earning crop – I saw an old Inn.
