Comments: Okay, everybody remember where we parked.

As we get older expect trunk driving to lead to a sedan tarrying lifestyle.

I'm thinkin' a 1955 Olsmobile.
Holiday model if you must ask.

You laugh, but during my wife's "gap years*," she once went to the garage to get in her car, and had to brush off cobwebs before opening the door.

*Thank God THAT'S over. A retired unemployed wife will drive any husband batty.

Still trying to decide: photoshop or some wag with a new chainsaw, an old abandoned banger and a perceptive s.o.h? The Genesis of that tree trunk preceded the manufacture of that motor.

But loved the headline.

I wouldn't be so sure of that Frank P.
I currently have 30'+ tall sycamores where 10 years ago there was nothing but gravel driveway.

Out here on the high plains we have countless rows of hedge apple tress (osage orange) used as wind breaks for farm fields. Osage trees are harder than Chestnut and create fruit that looks like a lime green brain the size of a softball. Barbed wire fences that were originally erected along the tree rows are enveloped over time by the hedge trees. It will appear that the wire grew straight through the tree.

I look at photos of abandoned and neglected automobiles on a facebook group, and fairly often see photos similar to this. Clearly in some parts of the United States there are trees that can grow to this size in ten or twenty years....
