I was out with DH on a "tool" buying spree near Spring City, TN. Saw this tree and thought it was awesome. It was sooooo big. To put it in perspective the gravel road next to it is at least 10 ft wide. Only noticed the hand after I got home and put it on the computer. DS wanted me to show him how I got the fist to photo shop on and be textured like a tree. He did not believe me that it was real until I showed him the pic on my blackberry.

Alfred Joyce Kilmer knew what he was talking about when he wrote the poem,"Trees." That is an awesome old tree!

Beautiful tree but the hand worries me. A little spooky. Must be the time of year.

I love the trees in the Wizard of OZ. So cute. Especially when he slapped Dorothy's hand. LOL
