Dreaming of walking among giants. When the wind blew, they made deep creaking sounds that felt like ancient voices. Happy

Going up a coastal hillside amidst the giant redwoods. Green ferns cover the forest floor, shrubby green boughs filter sunlight through a partly cloud sky with hints of white and blue above. 100 out of 5 stars, would recommend.

Gorgeous photo, and it must be so special to hear the sounds during the wind. – Alina

It was… and a little spooky too, especially when I ended up behind the group a way - and was alone with them. It was… humbling.

I know what you mean. I used to lie in a hammock looking up at the forest treetops, and if it was windy, they would be creaking. You feel very small.

My Sequoias aren't as ancient as the Redwoods on the coast but they were planted as seedlings in 1994. Sequoia Gigantea. 63 altogether on 5 acres. My favorite trees.

Beautiful! We need the younger trees as much as the old ones!

Yes for sure.

It's good for us to hear the Ancestors from time to time.

Yes. We could use a lot more wisdom of that kind. If only we’d listen.
