This is the General Sherman Tree - it is the world's largest tree by volume.
Unfortunately, I am having problems transferring my WORD document to this - so there will be more information later when I rewrite. Thanks.

Georgia connection? I get it.....:)
Did you turn your comments off for the Pocahontas post? I didn't see the comment button. Submit that one to the history carnival....you might get ahold of someone who is "connected" if you know what I mean....:)
Marvelous trees. Sequoias are North America's Baobabs.
Years and years ago when I visited the redwoods for the first time I had just finished reading the Tolkien books. I sat myself down and nestled into the roots and looked striaght up the trunk. It felt like I was being held in the hand of an Ent. Absolutely mystical.
