Wrapping Up the Twig Inventory

This is it-- the handful of twigs that I grabbed while slipping and slopping along trails that have turned to rushing creeks with piles of tossed wet leaves curling along their banks.  There was an actual pond at one point where the slope had flattened out for a few feet.  The saturated soil has loosened around tree trunks so much that an enormous oak has tipped up out of the ground with its roots waving and its crown crashed across several other trees.  Many of these twigs are starting to leaf out a bit.

    1. Please explain about perelamdr and tree fall. I'm familiar with Perelandra but not the significance of tree fall.
