Backstory
This tree should give us some perspective. Not only does it dwarf us physically, baring vandalism as befell the Treaty Oak or acts of God, this tree will out live us all. If we were lucky and lived in a different time, we could feed its roots when we died.Local tradition has it this oak is more than 2,000 years old. As the church members put it, “It was around when Jesus walked the earth.”
