Close up picture of the great tree in our back yard.
The tree is a aproximately 200 year old pin oak. It’s amazing and provides amazkng shade for our home.
Crackhappy, 
There is a perfect spot to build a tiny gnome house in amongst the roots in that picture. That would look so cute!
ChamrsDeluxe, It really would, We have considered it and talked about adding one, but decided that its natural beauty shouldn’t be messed with.
guyrocket, 
Thanks for sharing your tree.
And your wife.
ChamrsDeluxe, ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
BeardyGrumps, That really is a great tree.
ChamrsDeluxe, Really is. Wife for scale https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/4719cba4-9b2a-49f9-8825-6a76e31db4de.jpeg
Can_you_change_your_username, Now do one with her holding a banana.
ChamrsDeluxe, Bet. Might can do that tomorrow.
postmateDumbass, A “banana”
AnarchistArtificer, I was going to comment something similar, but instead, I’ll just bump your comment up
expatriado, you can tell is a pin oak by the way it is
ChamrsDeluxe, Older (5 years ago) picture with my wife for scale, but is big.

expatriado, i planted my white oak in 2012, i will never see it that big, but i hope next owner(s) let it grow
ChamrsDeluxe, I’ve never seen a pin oak this big, but our tree guy said it’s at least 200 years. This guy was here long before us, and barring some tragedy it will be here generations after us. It provides such amazing shade for our home and just just sit under and relax. We are very lucky.
ChamrsDeluxe, More recent picture better showing scale. Still using wife for scalehttps://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/2cac51e6-af34-485a-8a0e-b5d601e3e327.jpeg
darvocet, Could you get closer?
ChamrsDeluxe,
darvocet, We must get closer!
ChamrsDeluxe,
darvocet, ahhh finally. Looks like an oak!
ChamrsDeluxe, While not this tree, here is an oak leaf under a microscope so you can get a little closer.
