Sometimes you can see the most unusual things on vacation! For example, in Yosemite village, there is a tree stump and the rings are labeled with what happened on various years of the tree's life. On this stump you can see the Norman conquest of England, the signing of the Magna Carta, and other important historical events. Isn't that incredible? It's called "Big Tree" and it is located right outside the museum in Yosemite. For a size comparison, I took a photo of hubby looking at it. Think Green Thursday for August 27, 2009. Perhaps we should remember and give respect to these living things that are thousands of years old?

I don't remember where I've seen a piece of a huge tree like this, but they labeled it just like this tree. Isn't it wonderful? :)
