    Default A couple neat pics from the weekend


    I went to a family get together Saturday in the little town my grandfather grew up in about 2 hours away from here, after we ate we drove out to the old farm he grew up on and the schoolhouse where he went to school through the 4th grade. The tree in the pic was planted by my great grandfather over 80 years ago, he brought the sapling home in his pocket from a hunting trip and planted it in the corner of their yard. My great grandmother took the metal rim from an old wooden wagon wheel and placed it around the tree and planted some flowers in it. Over 80 years later the tree still stands and the rim from the wagon wheel has become part of the tree.

    Good story and pictures, thanks for sharing.

    If you're at Como Steakhouse, walk or drive up main st to the end. There is an oak tree that has taken in a metal fence and the roots are curling over the concrete curb.
