 It was such a gorgeous day! My mom decided to wait a day before heading back home, and in the afternoon we all headed over to the park. The closer play structure was packed with kids, so we headed over to the farther one. The path we took wound through a wooded area, dense enough you could forget you were in the middle of the city.

As we walked through the wood, K pointed out a magic-looking tree with it’s roots growing on the outside a few feet above the ground. Looking closer, we saw that actually a tree had sprouted within a stump, and had stayed alive long enough for the roots to reach down around the stump to the ground.
