Namaste

-a Sanskrit word meaning I honor the place in you in which the entire Universe dwells, I honor the place in you which is of Love, of Integrity, of Wisdom and of Peace. When you are in that place in you, and I am in that place in me, we are One, is the title and theme for Rhea Giffin’s sculpted ornament donation along with exquisite ornament paintings and interpretations by more than a dozen established northwest artists which will adorn a special tree this year to benefit emergency services at Kootenai Medical Center via The Festival of Trees at the Coeur d’Alene Resort. See all the trees and join in the many festivities November 26-29th  http://thefestivaloftrees.com/Festival_of_Trees/HOME.html
