Title: Jeff's dangerous tree club.
Post by: Jeff on March 24, 2008, 09:31:20 PM
This is sorta like Tom's holey Oak Club, only much more dangerous, and much farther North. This ravenous tree lives on my property in da U.P.  See if you can identify the victims members inducted so far.  ;D

Isn't it the property owners responsibility to protect visitors from mean dogs, icey steps and hungry trees? :D

Whooee! That tree has big lips.  Almost as big as Houlihan's.  Could almost pass as Jolie's but the size of that trunk gives it away, It's a Jimmy J.J. Walker, sure as shootin'.

But the real question is:  How much liquid encouragement did it take before these people got wise enough to put their hands in there? :D :D

Jeff musta been the only one drinkin water and not "liquid encouragment"   smiley_beertoast . He seems to be the only one there that wasn't brave enough to get close to it.Or ...... Maybe he is a "little more right"   smiley_scholar than the others there!!  :D  :D  :D

I've been seing a guy walking through town that'd make Kevin look like he's wearing woodland camo. They must be hunting duds, but they haven't been dulled by use, this guy is almost neon. Head to toe, bright blaze orange. :D

When up to the UP with Jeff, he stopped by the elevator at Pickford for some bear feed. I took a shot of the building. One of them buildings I'd like to be able to see in years to come.  Kind of like the idea of a community hall or church. :)
