We Shall Not be Moved

Thursday, April 27, 2006 ~ Pebble Beach, California

We shall not, we shall not be moved
We shall not, we shall not be moved
Just like the tree standing by the water
We shall not be moved.
~ traditional folk song

The Lone Cypress has stood on this rocky promontory overlooking the Pacific Ocean for more than 250 years.
A symbol of strength and endurance in the face of elemental forces, it has also adapted to those same forces by allowing its profile to be sculpted by powerful coastal winds.
