Easter Miracle? Virgin Mary Spotted In Cherry Tree - Tree Cut Down
<snip>

(CBS4) ALBUQUERQUE, NM Is it an Easter miracle or just nature’s artwork?

Leo Korte of Albuquerque was cutting down his cherry tree with the help of a friend this past Good Friday, when they noticed something peculiar.

Korte and his friend both noticed what they thought look like an image of Our Lady of Guadalupe, also known as the Virgin Mary, in the rings of the tree.

They added some oil to the tree and the image became clearer.

A day after the cherry tree was cut down it blossomed.

5. Anyone that knows anything about trees will tell you...
just because you cut it down, it doesn't die right away. It's not like humans when they are shot and all the blood runs out. Some trees will continue to contain water and nutrients for up to a year. it's a form of survival. You know, nature and all that crap?

So it blooming the next day is no surprise in the least. More than likely, the shock of it being cut down brought on the bloom.

sigh. I hate living in an alternative universe.
