I'd love some Juniper or Elder (Sambusuc nigra), if i may say a wish! ;-))<br />Oak is the most important tree in ancient northern european mythology and it has a special meaning for the landscape, still today. Mostly on hills are giant oaktrees were planted, often they mark a place of execution (as assizes were hold under oak trees in germanic days), a cross Cat Fishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01949315894316323029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-10019716460664012282009-06-15T12:33:01.990+01:002009-06-15T12:33:01.990+01:00Thank you my dear!

I have been impressed by the Southern planatation images of the massive oaks, looking over vast plantations...somehow the whole "colonial" air creates its own sense of wonder to this historically inquisitive soul. <br /><br />It's a pity that what is nature's debris ends up becoming a sellasble product.
