Re: ~It Won't Be Long Now! Poor Mighty Oak!!~
We love you, Marie. We love you, Ed. You are such brave warriors. I'm proud to be beside you in this battle. I salute you. We've got our campfire blazing non stop. We all gather in a circle around it and the faces in the firelight show such love and solidarity, hope, fear and determination. Our angels hover over us, holding in the heat and keeping out the cold....we Believe.
