The Trees Live On



My home church built an addition a few years ago. In order to build we had to cut down some very large trees. I was compelled to have the logs from the trees saved to preserve them in some way. This Summer, during the two hottest weeks I took twelve of the rough milled boards from the these oak trees and sanded them with belt sanders and coated them with varnish. There are twelve panels, each averaging 20"-24" wide, that line the Sunday School hall. In some small way, I'm glad these trees could live on and be remembered.
