Click the pic for more images of  the choked oak.

The house (now gone) that was next door had its front deck built around a live oak that then grew into the deck. When I got a dude from They Might Be Monkeys out to look at my trees, he spotted this & exclaimed that he wished he had a camera since he was doing a presentation on *the stupidest things done to trees*.
I offered to take some shots for him of this live oak. (Ever see the x rays of the guy who survived a railroad spike thru his head or some such? This reminds me of that. )
