Bokeh Thursday: Acorn Destruction on Top of Destroyed Tree House & Oak Tree (4 inset pictures!)


4 pictures above in notes! :)
Most of my pictures for Bokeh Thursday involve the tree you see under this destroyed acorn. When Steve and I moved here, we discovered an old, ruined tree house platform in a very dead Oak tree. We will never know if the building of that platform killed the tree but it seems unlikely. However, the tree had been simply massive (for trees in this area) with a base of about 4-5 feet and I was so sad that it had been dead for many years. There were nails pounded into the bark all over, and a crude, broken wooden ladder wound its way up one side. It looked unsafe and we never considered trying to climb up the old skeleton. However, I didn't realize HOW unsafe it truly was until I took the dogs on a walk last early spring and stopped dead in my tracks when I found that the entire tree had fallen over in a heavy storm!
So, today's Bokeh Thursday pictures are about the destruction I found on this poor dead tree.
First I spotted destroyed acorns on top of the trunk and found a piece that was interesting and you can see lots of pieces in bokeh behind! :)
