“Whoever has learned how to listen to trees no longer wants to be a tree.
― Herman Hesse
He wants to be nothing except what he is.
That is home.
That is happiness.”
Trees are incredible.
I find Spending time among them to be both inspirational and soul-filling.

The conifers remain a presence of strength and calm throughout the
coming colder months of winter.
I hope these pieces may bring some
of that soul goodness to your home 🙏
“Between every two pines is a
doorway to a new world.”

Red Christmas Tree
White Christmas Tree
I like the red and white trees best.
thank you Julia! colours of Canada and Christmas too! 🙂
Beautiful christmas trees ! Red and green – I like them the best.
ahh classics! I am a fan as well 🙂
Mostly the trees I like to visit are in Goldstream Park, near Victoria, just off the Island Highway before the Malahat Drive (damaged in the recent storm-haven’t been there since that storm). Huge, old conifers with deciduous trees intermingling. As a younger person, I could walk amongst these trees. Times and people change. They are all fenced off now. It’s disappointing.
ahh yes, I understand as I was in Vancouver when that big storm came through and knocked down many trees in Stanley park. The stumps are incredible though!
There is a redwood by a lake locally, that always makes me smile, I can remember the welly walks with the reception class (age 4-5) when they all measured it’s girth by holding hands and hugging the tree. It measured 13 toddlers!
Thank you for sharing, Juliette! 13 toddlers is a big tree! That must have been so exciting 🙂
Lovely. Thank you.
