Now I have to measure those trees at Fries Mill.They seem close to that big.I also know where two monstrous oaks are that I haven't measured yet.One on an island in a swamp that looks like possibly someone may have lived on long ago.Both are white oaks

Persimmon bark is quite distinctive and we do have some monsters down here.There are some huge persimmon trees growing s]around the remains of the old Fries Mill (Potters) tavern.Also so big you can hardly see the leaves.

Also the tree is leaning toward the open water to the left.as it leans for the sun it tightens its cable till it snaps or comes out by the roots

I have read in a book some where that trees do not actually grow "up" but expand at their twig tips and expand in girth adding rings but say you make a chest level blaze today and come back in twenty years.The blaze will still be chest level but barely discernible as a scar that will be...
