This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Oh, cool. Thanks. I imagine it took some manipulation to fell it and move it.
I've not been there enough, somehow missed this completely. Have to go back. Having grown up in California, in the redwoods, I understand the scale of these things but this photo doesn't even look real. It's nuts. So, I learned something. Thanks for posting.
