Little bent tree

I can't imagine there not being anything to see at ANY National Park, to be honest. They're National Parks for a reason aren't they? Silly "certain in-law" lol. Anyway, I love your photo of the tree. In fact, I love trees in general. So serene looking and the sound they make with all their leaves on in the summer (Mum has trees beyond her garden) is quite relaxing, especially when all the neighbours are out. Haha! I do hope "your tree" has a few friends around it.

well look who has the prettiest Avatar!!! looking good.. I guess my brownies are helping elevate the beauty in you.. want some more I last went to Yosemite National Park four years ago and it pretty much looked the same as in the photo...

Sometimes it is a blessing in disguise to be a guide to foreign relatives on a visit as we can enjoy the scenery at the same time. It is an opportunity for us to discover the wonders of nature too. Maybe you can revisit the place and check whether the tree that has captivated you is still standing tall.

Good morning, new avatar, looking good.. so how's the tree now? Is it still bent? I don't think there's ever nothing to see, there's always something to see, depends on how one looks at it.

The answer my friend is blowing in the wind.....

I pity so much the poor people that are always finding there nothing to see! The world is so full of wonders that one could stare in awe all day if we didn´t turn away to work and toil. Do you know that ALL marigold flowers have the same number of petals? Isn´t that awesome? My last vacation was on January 2008. Some friends have a yatch and invited me for a 3 week journey to the San Blas Islands (Kunayala). There, too, there´s nothing to see. In those islands live the proud Kunas. They live the same way they did before Columbus discovered America. It wasn´t a cruise: I was a member of the small crew.

I love the tree Dawn, but the rocks capture my attention. I love rock formations. Your in-law reminds me of an interview I heard with a Yosemite Park ranger. He was stopped by a tourist who told him he only had 30 minutes to spare, so what should he do? The ranger replied he should sit down and cry.

Hmmmmmmmm .....strange....very strange.....

Well I haven't been to Yosemite for many years, but trees that grow in the wild can withstand many difficult things and still grow. It may spend it's life stunted and will never be a tall straight tree, but could live many years.

hi friend, Its another new avatar. Its nice little bent tree avatar. You taken good photo of bent tree. have a good day.

How can anyone say there is nothing to see at a national park? Sheesh! I assume they must not be a nature love by any means. I would love to go visit Yosemite (we haven't yet) and the geysers there . . . we've seen all kinds of documentaries on it! Cute little bent tree . . . maybe he straighted up and got bigger - hee hee. A lot can happen in 2 years!
