Just as the lion is the King of Beats, the oak is the King of Trees. Oak leaves can symbolize many things, including strength, endurance, eternity, honour, liberty, hospitality, faith and virtue. All of these elements combines make the oak a symbol of the power of the Christian faith even in times of adversity. The Oak along with the aspen and the holly, is one of the trees that lays claim to being the tree that that was made into Christ’s cross.
But, long before the Christians adopted the oak, Celtic Druids used the oak in many of their rituals. Indeed the Druid name may have been derived from the Welsh word for “oak” derw. The oak was also sacred tree to the Romans, Greeks, Norse, and Teutonic peoples.

It was King's Day in all of Holland as I was leaving. It's a national celebration, and Amsterdam is one of the places that lots of Hollanders come into to celebrate. It's a BIG deal for them. The streets were PACKED with folks in orange (the national color), as I made my way to the train station. At the train station, WAVES of people were coming off of the several trains that come into that station. The picture captures a small segment of Hollanders on the plaza of the station heading into the city. It was like an outdoor concert 10 times over. I'm glad I was leaving instead if arriving!
The Musselburgh Pause the Flood Scheme group aims to:
Pause the flood scheme
Explore nature-based solutions
Protect our town for future generations
We’ve worked with geoscience experts who have told us that there’s still time to explore other options.
This is an opportunity for Musselburgh to become a leading example of a town using nature-based solutions to protect its residents from future flooding.
(longish exposure without tripod = slihgtly blurry image, and a bit too dark for my taste... one of the first lightning-capture tries))
