- Thank you! Now that you mention it, I vaguely remember hearing about prayer wheels, but still not prayer flags. It is a beautiful idea. I will be back in Boston next week (my husband lives in Massachusetts). I'll have to see if I can find p rather flags there!

I think your prayer flag for West, Tx is wonderful. A great idea we should all try. Sometimes there are situations where words don't express our feelings.

Thank you for commenting on the little bee eater. I was sad when I knew he was finally on his own and I had to put down my needle.
