Ah yes! Why not walking widdershins? It is getting near that time of October after all. And I never considered Friday the 13th unlucky either, and just a few days ago, a black cat stopped to greet me as I crossed its path.

I just love this time of year. Perhaps it being my birth month may have something to do with it?

And that coin tree!! Love it! ❤️

I love that version of wish trees! I've never seen anything like that either! Thanks for doing the research! I have seen trees where in winter people attach ribbons and other adornments, sometimes with food for birds, sometimes with Christmas decorations, and other themes pop up. I always assumed people would make a wish when they put on their offering, and that that was what a wishing tree was. But perhaps I've got it wrong. Anyway, delightful tale and it does sound like a perfect day!
