Angel Oak in South Carolina stands 66.5 ft (20 m) tall and is estimated to be
more than 1400 or 1500 years old. (By Daniela Duncan) And this one would work pretty well, too, don't you think??? It's really great realizing there are things "older than me"!!!! |

compassion.

The
flamboyant tree, Madagascar. By Salete T Silva
Just living is not enough. One must have sunshine,
freedom and a little flower. - Hans Christian Anderson
I arise in the morning torn between a desire to
improve the world and a desire to enjoy the world. This makes it hard to plan
the day. -Elwyn Brooks White
If you search the world for happiness you may find
it in the end, for the world is round and will lead you back to your door.
-Robert Brandt

What Can I Say?
I'm interested in almost everything. Use to like to travel, but it's too expensive now. I take Tai Chi classes, swim, volunteer in a Jump-start program for pre-schoolers. I'm an avid reader and like nearly everyone these days I follow politics avidly. I'm a former teacher and Special Projects Coordinator for a Telecommunications company, Assistant to the President of a Japanese silicon wafer manufacturing company. Am now enjoying retirement -- most of the time. I have two daughters, one son-in-law and two sons scattered all over the country. No grandchildren.
