Famous Banyan Tree Shows Signs of Life  

From the ashes and tragedy of Maui’s devastating Lahaina wildfire comes a bit of good news. The famous, sprawling Banyan tree that was a cultural center of Lahaina had been burned in the terrible blaze. Many people declared the tree dead, along with the 97 people that lost their lives.

However, the resilience of nature is amazing, and within the last few weeks, new leaves have begun sprouting from the tree’s many draped branches.

Thanks in large part to a big community effort, experts in trees, horticulture and others worked to improve the damaged soil at the Banyan tree’s base, using compost tea to promote new growth. Those efforts seem to have paid off, and with the tree’s new leaves comes a sense that not all was lost in the fire, which was one of the worst in American history.

Below is a short video of the tree’s new leaves, and photos that show how strong and resilient nature can be.

Sometimes you get lucky.

   

We were when WonderWoman met Superman.She had had boyfriends, but none serious. Thirty-one years ago she came home saying she met a guy at the gym who said that she didn't know it, but he was going to marry her. Our reactions were dubious at best. I regret those doubts now, realizing he was, and is a blessing. 

Dated three years & married for twenty eight.

 Superman is from a great family, loving parents and two brothers who are all so close and laid the groundwork for the wonderful man, husband and father he is.

 My favorite Dad photo, and there are many. Superman reading bible stories to his three boys at bedtime.

  It's a Mom's dream to have a great husband for her daughter and a loving, caring Dad for her Grandsons (Grandhunks). Dreams come true.

Because of him, these young men are strong & have good hearts.They know to to treat the women in their lives because of the love and respect he shows to his wife, their Mom, WonderWoman.

Have a great day. 

You are truly loved by your wife, sons, family and friends.
