So, I decided to plant a dead  willow tree in my front garden.  It will need both strength and determination to live...

On the flipside, these fawkers are very determined to rip apart my house from the inside out and they have the strength to do it.

All titillation aside, I found this theme very hard.  Thanks KayN for the challenge!  However, I am still not happy with my results.  Here's hoping I have the S&D to try again...
