Hit a few spots that i havent been to in years, mainly because to own a atv in massachusetts makes you a criminal, so i got smarter and make street legal stuff to enjoy both ends of the spectrum.
I need to get my other 500 legal so i can set that one up primarily for dirt, the distanzia tires get a lil squirly.
The white oak is actually the largest or oldest, or maybe both on the east side of the mississippi. Nothing too special but figured I would share

That's an impressive tree. Were you by yourself on the ride?

Ya, i was all by myself today. I like going alone sometimes if i do exploring. I did do a bunch of that, but didnt really find anything pic worthy.

that wouldnt surprise me a bit. oak is one of the slower growing trees. its mindboggling to think of the history that happened in that trees lifespan

Ehhh, it made it along just fine so far. Someone did cut off a dead "limb" a few years ago that broke off, but for the most part it seems to manage just fine.
Anything that can live that long has my respect.

And now it's watching our dollar crash, a unified banking system and the dissolving of the middle class; It'll probably die soon :lol:
