JHC, don't you call EOD or the Bomb Squad after #1?

"Che Williams was using his magnet to search for metal debris in the River Tame when he pulled the first grenade out of the water. He remained in the same spot and pulled up a total 19 grenades."

Have you gone to the tree to check it out? Is it a native or an old landscape tree?

I’ve taken another look at The Tree
at some peril. I believe I was detected by the compound’s insiders: there was a subtle movement among adjustable panels of likely armor, and a probable sound of an action or two being brought into battery. I acquired a dataset before performing a slow abort.*
“Deciduous” is wrong; it’s evergreen. A eucalypt but I couldn’t guess the species. In any case I hand off the take.

Yep, It's a Eucalyptus, perhaps @DustyDuke can send a rabid koala bear to eat it down

And remove the navel, the geodetic omphalos, by which the local Cartesian grid is defined?!

The suggestion, if followed, would cascade into general anarchy. At which point he would be advised to contact his friends in film. They get real mileage out of such situations.

The tree looks rather unhealthy as well, don't think it has more than 2 yrs left. They removed a large historic stand of them along H-101 in Nipomo a few years back because they were diseased; famous as a Monarch butterfly nursery

Yeah in Woodside (Bay area horse-people country) there were these massive eucalyptus with trunks >6ft, and then one took another out in a windstorm. :sad:
