Off of the interstate highway now to the gently curving roads that wind their way through the rural countryside. Homes, both new and others, have faded and abandoned and given way to the relentless forces of weather and gravity. Farms dot the roadside with crops in varying stages of growth, creating bright green swathes that follow the undulating curves of the land. I take this road almost weekly, driving to our getaway place on the Cumberland Plateau.
Thank you so much for sharing your special tree with us. I'm happy for you that everything aligned, that you got the "yes" letter, that the ideal weather and light conditions presented themselves, and that the oak stretched out its arm to you. Wonderful!
Thank you! If you believe like I do, and I'm guessing you do, that this oak tree knows I respect and admire it, I simply had to find a way to honor it and say thank you.
Beautiful photograph and story., Paul. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Lee Anne!
And if that bull over in the corner bothers you…
Show him the letter!
There were lots of cows on the edge of the field. I was just outside the fence 😉. I've been chased by many bulls when growing up.
I, for one, am so glad you stopped. What a magnificent being.
Rebecca, Thank you! I look forward to photographing it in different seasons and revealing its different personsonalities.
Can’t wait to see!

YES!
Beautiful, Paul.
Thank you so much. You don't know how much this means to me! I'm a photographer generally, and somewhat new to the writing world.
