I discovered this tree in the beloved state park on The Bluff, near where I live. It is one of the picturesque places I so often post about.
A very helpful Park Ranger, with a great deal of imagination, gave me this wonderful tale to embellish my photo for Valentine's Day.
The heart was left when we trimmed a branch from another tree that was growing nearby. The branch landed on the thinner end and bounced an improbable direction, striking the other tree.
The tree that was trimmed has since died. So, maybe, it was making sure the heart tree would never forget it.
I feel a love story is written in-between-the-lines of this tale, where one heart touched another heart...
Happy Valentine's Day
Meggie Mac
