A 400 Year Old Tree called the "Angel Oak Tree"....Look!!!

Went on a Sunday afternoon...
Did you know about the Angel Tree...Look at the Facts!!
Gnarly dude...and old..look at the holes where branches have broken off
So enormous the branches lay on the ground.....
There were supports everywhere to help maintain the weight of  the Angel Tree for future generations...

The Entire tree....So beautiful it takes my breath away....
A Close-up of one side of this Angel...
Thank you Angel Tree for lasting for so long so my eyes could see you in person!!

  1. This tree is awesome, Amanda. I'm so happy I went to see it with Casey. It was a very cold day, though, so not as enjoyable as it could have been. I will have to go back someday with the two of you when it is warm out. It is an amazing work of art by mother nature! Hard to imagine its size until you stand underneath it.
    Great photos!!
