Angel Oak

On Sophie's 5th birthday, we went to visit Angel Oak the oldest living tree east of the Mississippi. It is said to be over 500 years old and it is quite awesome! Standing under it's beautiful twisting branches, I could not help but think of all this tree has lived through including not only the passage of time but also the many changes this land we call the United States has been through. I feel blessed to have seen Angel Oak on my Sophie's 5ht birthday. It was a wonderful way to celebrate!
