June 2025, placed 2nd in Andrea Dietrich's High Five for June contest

           **********************************************************************


Junipers symbolized rest and refuge in ancient times.
Elijah, Job, and Jeremiah were drawn to these special trees.
During their worst times, resting beneath them, they pondered life and death.
