In college we used to go out to this big tree –which we called, “The Big Tree.” It was this tree in the middle of nowhere. Well, actually it is about 2 miles West of Seward and only a half-mile from nowhere as it is in the middle of a section.
On Thursday, after successfully executing Burger Night at R.O.’s with Sam and Rachel,we decided to go out and introduce Rachel, Anna and Gracen to The Big Tree. I regret that I didn’t take any pictures from further away…
I’ll admit that it doesn’t look that big in the above picture. Lets get closer…
Still a little bit hard to tell. Lets put some people in there for scale…
I don’t remember it being hollowed out like that the last time we were out here. So that must have happened within… I don’t know. The last decade? Here’s a shot from the other side…
Brad says
That tree is huge! Are the black marks on the trunk burns? Was it hit by lightning?
Lloyd says
That’s what it looks like. Maybe hit several times. It is the only tree for about a half mile in any direction.
Lauren says
You could build a little house in that tree. A creepy, creepy house.
Kristi says
And whilst in college, what did you do at the BIG tree?
Lauren says
For the record, I never went to the big tree in college. Also for the record, I know what they did. 😉
