This is my slab of wood from the Samaan Tree.

I have embossed it digitally with an image of the tree.

Hi Louis,

What a beautiful, majestic tree! And so symbolic too.
Your write-up about it was very touching.

Thank you for sharing.

Hello Nazli,

Now that you are back, I am looking forward to reading your posts on your trip.

Thanks for your supportive comments.

I think this tree grows in Malaysia. I wonder what its Malaysian name is?

Hi, Louis

Thanks for, and appreciate, your "mission statement."

Touching Samaan tree story. Had a similar remembrance idea, asking friends to bring us a stone from their yard.

Off to Trinidad tomorrow.

Hello Louis

Thanks for your "mission statement," and your touching samaan tree story. A comparable idea of mine: asking frends to bring us a stone from their yard.

Leave for Trinidad tomorrow.

Hi Ric,

I bet you are looking forward eagerly to Trinidad. Do you plan to write about its current condition when you return?

That was a wonderful idea: asking friends to bring a stone from their yard.

Have a safe and enjoyable trip.
