Description

as one can see the majority of the tree trunk is gone and what is left is rotting with a large hole big enough for your leg...but this tree refuses to give up. I think it can be applied to every day lifes I hope you are having a wonderful weekend and sincerely appreciate your visit and ideas/opinion

Life that never gives up, I keep staring with amazement to all those trees that still have a tiny little living part and keep alive, indeed, one of those encouragements of the creation to keep looking forward, even in the hardest conditions!

It seems to to me that this tree, has an about sixty years. Surely with overpopulations of squirrels without predatory, it sounds nourished well! It nice sounds, but he corrodes our trees. Beautiful compositions!!!****!!!
