Even Dumfries takes a fall of snow now and again.

Trees with strong roots.

Strong roots enable the hight aimed for. This old tree in Dock Park is standing strong after many years. Keep your roots, as you aim high.

Where are your roots?

The roots of this tree on the top of castle mound reminded me of the importance of being rooted somewhere. How about you, where are your roots?
