Sometimes it pays to slowdown

Copyrighted tree roots

Sitting in traffic at stop lights is certainly not one of my favorite things to do. However, unless I’m REALLY in a hurry, I do rather enjoy being stopped on Olentangy River Rd waiting to get through the light at Powell Rd – which can be a lengthy process.

Being stopped along this scenic portion of the road gives me a chance to see things that are otherwise missed if traffic flows well. Yesterday I noticed this tree and quickly grabbed my camera to snap a photo.

Don’t the roots look like the tree has grown into a hand, trying to hold onto the limited hillside that is available to it?

  1. It looks exactly like a wizened old hand!

  2. Yeah, isn’t it cool! A wise hand with a little arthritis.

    Carole, for size perspective, you can see a rail fence behind.
