Oren, Ethan and I went to the Community lunch at the Quaker Friends Meeting today. It's a big potluck meal after the meeting. We saw a lot of people we have met so far. All of the kids ran off to play in the woods. Several of them started to climb up the inside of this Strangler Fig. A Strangler Fig is a tree that sort of takes over another tree. The Strangle part is that the Fig grows around the original, or host tree, and then slowly kills it. When the tree dies it leaves a really cool hollowed out space. This tree was really great for climbing and a few of the kids were able to get up about 30' off the ground.
