Shorn

The clootie tree (shown here just a day earlier!) has been stripped of its lower limbs, and all the prayers and blessings that hung thereon, courtesy of City of Portland tree trimmers. 

I continue to pray for all the prayers represented by this tree, past and present, and for the tree itself, whose lower trunk is now as bare as a telephone pole.

Many thanks for the good wishes. I think my summer cold may have turned into summer allergies. Energy low, not up to much in the way of blipping. 

Have a great and healthy summer, everybody!
