This tree is older than all of us.

Imagine if the carbon it stored for us had memory and could speak.

This is a dear friend of mine.

She is a tree hugger with an open heart.

She feels.

She is lovely.

To be honest I don't know if this is a Tasmanian forest or a New Zealand forest?

She has visited both.
I originally thought it was Tasmanian, but looking at this image I'm thinking Kiwi.

Does anyone else know?

Obviously by my statement it is evident that I didn't take the photo. Her husband did.

I thought it was essential to include this treasured beauty for tree hugging Tuesday.
