The Tree That Feeds - is GONE!

[reynardo]

I just read it on sclerotic_rings' journal.

lederhosen says it's better to think that something burrowing up from below pushed it out...

In 2002, on our honeymoon, ambitious_wench took us to see H. P. Lovecraft's grave, and the amazing tree that grew from it. This tree looked exactly what you would expect from one that had grown from the man who gave us Cthulhu. She took silverblue, harliquinn and jazzmasterson there in 2003 as well (and those four sweet, innocent creatures were asked to leave - I can't think why...)



(My photo, but I'd submitted to Worth 1000, which is why the watermark on it)

A description of what's there (and how I found out) can be read here

Perhaps it took a vacation?

I'll never see it, outside of photography.

Oh, oh, gods, this hurts! All my pics of it are gone, too, on my old hard drive.

This came at a bad time for me.

I am very sorry---to steal Tolkien's words: For it was very beautiful, and had stood for so long.

And the real shame is that if I'd known about it coming down, I would have taken cuttings to clone it a few times. After all, considering the interest in Wollemi pines, wouldn't you love to have your very own cloned Lovecraft Beech?
