This design holds a deeply personal meaning for me. The “Tree of Life” represents connection, growth, eternity, and the ever-turning cycle of life. Here in Washington State, there stands a beloved landmark often called the Tree of Life—a resilient, windswept symbol clinging to the edge of the earth. Though it may not stand for many more years as the land continues to erode, it remains a powerful reminder of nature’s endurance and fragility. We were fortunate to visit it and add our initials to a stone beneath its roots, as so many others have done. No matter its fate, this tree will forever hold a special place in my heart, and this design is my tribute to its story.
