First off I went to my favorite spot to pick wild muscadines (native grapes) just off of the PATH near Candler Park and Paidea School. While there I found this interested grape with a dead insect inside of it.

Truly dying happy

Can you imagine dying while consuming a sweet delicacy that's 10 times your own size? That would kind of rule.
Further down the road I saw a tree company removing a GIANT tuliptree from someone's front yard. I was able to snap a few quick pix. The size of the trunk pieces was really impressive


I think I counted about 120 rings from this photo

Neat bike ride.

Why did they cut it into such short pieces? Yo would think if it were necessary to cut down such a neat tree they could at least use it for lumber. maybe there aren't any mills nearby, or it was too diseased?
probably not cost effective, sadly enough.
