I've posted it on my blog before (http://nancybond.wordpress.com/2008/10/10/thanks-giving/) and I try to photograph it at least once or twice a year. It almost seems a sacred thing how neither wind, storms, blizzards, or water have been able to shake its roots. I love it for that. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-52585898455500984742009-09-03T10:25:34.986-04:002009-09-03T10:25:34.986-04:00Lezlie, still it must be a stress.

They politely ask us when we're cutting it down, and we politely ignore them. :-) These are people who think everyone's lawn should look like a golf course, so our tree is the least of their silly concerns.

Here in Hawaii it would become a haven for termites who would then jump over to your house.

Now we have talking points for our suburban neighbors who are annoyed by it. :-)<br /><br />LezlieLezliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05747969193923246804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-9438023981082908352009-09-01T19:48:27.331-04:002009-09-01T19:48:27.331-04:00Deb, I agree with you about dead trees being wildl...Deb, I agree with you about dead trees being wildlife magnets. I also like the serenity of a dead tree. This one looks like it has been polished by nature. <br /><br />I have meant to mention that I like the picture of the paper wasp nest. Is it on your house?? I have only seen them in trees.Lisa at Greenbowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07743973292900758183noreply@blogger.com
