Monokus don't get much better than this. Worthy of deep contemplation. Man's shortsightedness in regard to forest destruction is unconscionable

I appreciate you stopping by, Tom, and for your positive words. I agree, man's shortsightedness with deforestation is unconscionable, an act of greed as well. Blessings for a wonderful evening, Sara
