The Old Lady of the Forest

With this weekend's Nor'easter. Thought I'd look back to this beautiful sunday morning in May. Right after a brief downpour that then turned into deep blue skies and a layer of hot and humid weather that you could cut with a knife.

 

This beautiful tree is located just off of Sandstone Court (Decker Avenue). A rough idea of her age - at least 200 years old if not more. Take a left on Standstone, the road makes a left and just as you round the bend this grand old lady is sitting up on the right hand side of the hill. There are at least two and possibly more old mine openings in the same area.
