Good morning tooters. Yesterday when I was walking I came across this awesome old fallen eucalyptus tree. I love these trees, they’re so tough - they fall over but they don’t die - they send up new branches that themselves become new thick trunks. The fallen trunk of this tree takes up most of the length of the picture & new trees have grown from it.
I aspire to be this strong 💪🏼. I can’t send out new branches, but I can toughen up the limbs I have! #RiverWalk #Eucalyptus
