I’ve always thought that if trees 🌲 could speak they’d be the masters of storytelling. The stories they would tell, of the victories and defeats we read about in history textbooks. The strength & weakness they fight through in natural disasters & man. The lessons they could teach being the silent witnesses to the life itself. If only trees could speak, I wonder what they would say? This tree 🌳 found on the property of Boone Hall is believed to be dated over 200 years old. The oldest tree in South Carolina is the Angel Oak, which is estimated to be between 400-500 years old. 🌳 CAN YOU GUESS HOW OLD IS OLDEST TREE IN THE WORLD IS?🌲 . . . . . The oldest tree in the world was Methuselah. A 4,845-year-old Great Bristlecone pine, located in the White Mountains of California. DAMN Y’ALL.
It’s 96 degrees right now (maybe 110, it’s questionable), my air conditioner is broken, the house is infested with cockroaches, something keeps biting me in my sleep, and school is school. But one more day until I drive to #myrtlebeach for some put put mini golf, some place called senior frogs, thunderstorms and some very cautious swimming advisories regarding strong bacteria annnnnd I’m beyond stoked!! . . . . Have any of y’all been to #myrtlebeachsc?! Tell me everything!
My favorite place to be is surroundEd by lush green endless trees, and blue skies with speckled white fluffy clouds. It’s been a hot minute since I’ve been able to surround myself with some Mother Nature & vitamin D and let’s just say with the intensity of being in school, this was a much much needed weekend! #thanksmothernature
