The Pole Position

Monday, May 17, 2010


This afternoon I went for a walk around the State Capitol. I spotted this tree and realized I had seen it many times, even photographed it before but I'd never shared it on here. I'm not sure of the history of this old tree. I looked for some sign or plaque, but there were none. I'm assuming there's something about this old tree that makes it worthy of saving. Check out the series of poles around it. Some have loops at the top with a branch running through them. At least one near the center stretches above the top of the tree and has cables which reach out and support other limbs. Quite the design.

Tumwater Falls Revisited

Some of you may remember seeing this little tree growing out of the stone and concrete from a previous post here. My wife just loves this little tree growing and thriving in a less than ideal environment. Don't be surprised if it ends up on here from time to time. It's interesting to see it change from season to season toughing it out.
