As you drive into Galveston, there are bayous on both sides of the road. On the right stands this live oak that has survived hurricane after hurricane. No other tree stands in its vicinity.

Thanks for the memories. Drove past this tree many times when in Texas.

You are most welcome. The tree is still known as "The Tree".

Very nice photo. Maybe the boulders have something to do with its survival.
I'd guess they help keep the tree from toppling over in a bad storm.

I think the boulders were placed there to protect the tree from some drunken fools in a pickup!

Nice image. You should put it on a stock site.

Very good shot, years ago there was a tree in Fulton, Texas known as the Big Tree, it was massive, don't know if it is still there.
