 red leaves adorn sweet
gum clinging precariously ....
river runs through roots

Jack, It was an interesting sight. Most of the time when we go the river is not up that high so it is not as noticeable. I need to go back and take some pictures but I need to go early, early in the morning or late in the afternoon because of the light. Sara

Brian, I wrote then tried to find a picture. I don't take the pictures as much anymore. I wrote it from a real-life tree which is struggling with hanging on because the river does run through its roots when the river is up. The soil has washed away and only a few keep it hanging on. Maybe like me in my last years. Sara

Delice, There are some interesting trees out there who have lived a weathered life and the limbs and roots reveal their hard life. Your visit is encouraging. Sara
