Our Old Oak Tree (actually the city’s tree)
which we have had since we moved into our house in 1979, although it
looked healthy, had enough damage to make it a safety hazard, so it
has come down. It will be replaced by the City with a new Oak tree
next year. The photo collage below shows the tree in the beginning,
the end, and after it was gone.

 

The
slideshow below memorialize
the tree. The first two photos were
taken in
1980, the rest in December 2025. The photos
were taken
with my Panasonic
Lumix FZ300. Photo editing was
mostly done with Franzis Photo Projects software.
