I am fascinated by tree stumps. I look at the rings and think about the record they keep of drought and temperature and all the events the tree has silently witnessed. I loved this tree. It was large, gnarly, and very, very old. I was dismayed when they cut it down. Nevertheless, I could appreciate the need – the hollowed out core and the wormholes everywhere. I like to think that half the tree is still intact - the root system digging down into the earth almost as deep as the tree was tall.
