Douglas Hunt on May 21, 2012That certainly proves that plants have a tremendous will to survive. And when they didn't, some very cool natural sculpture was the result. Thanks for sharing.Helpful Reply

Bernice H on May 23, 2012Yes,a big hop and skip.. we really need to get more Northwest people on here! I send many email posts of things on here to my friends, but I dont know if any have jumped in yet. I dont know where Toledo is. Do you know where Yakima is? In the middle of WA, desert and agriculture! Soo far from the Oregon coast and ocean. 5 hours.Helpful Reply

Kelly S on May 26, 2012We have tree roots showing along some of the roads here. Must have been the same storm. Root balls 15' to 20' across. @Becky H yes we have alot of very large trees around here. The Ho Rain Forest is just a few hours away. Yakima is beautiful too and I love the crop circles made by the irrigation.Helpful Reply

Bernice H on May 26, 2012@Kelly...when was the storm? Pictures 5,6, 7-- that root system was huge, I didnt measure it, should have taken a perspective picture with me, at 5'4, to show how big. EErie ,but amazing. pics 15 16 17...awesome. I saw this type of growth In the redwoods many years ago. When one falls I guess others sprout out of the sideways fallen trunk . We go to Bremerton often, Stay at Oyster Bay, take the ferry from Seattle. Love Oyster Bay, stay at the Flagship Inn, and hit the Boatyard for great food and super waterfront eating. Rhododendrons just thrive over there.Helpful Reply

Kelly S on May 26, 2012I've been here 20 years, most of the one around our house were already like that. twenty years ago though our development was a pig farm though! I'n amazed and stand in awe of how well nature can survive on her own without human meddling.Helpful Reply
