Oak Trees with Spanish Moss!

I have been smitten by a lot of things in my life.
Birds, love, nature, waterfalls, mountains, music....
and
gigantic oak trees with Spanish moss.

Today, I am posting many photos of them for you.



In person, they are magical.
The least breeze sends the moss swaying.



Placed next to a historical plantation arch?
Undescribably beautiful:






Wondrous at every angle:







Did you know it is against the law in Savannah
to cut down these old oak trees??
I say: thank goodness they GET IT!:







This one was actually at a road stop in Florida:







This one is at the Bonaventure Cemetery in Savannah. (I will be doing many blogposts of this place next).
I can't think of a more beautiful place to have one's body spend eternity:







Vines AND Spanish moss? It doesn't get much better than THAT:







When you stand under one of these magnificent treasures and look up, it is amazing:







And a street-lined fantasy like this makes you think of old Victorian novels:
(I wondered how many people (like me, standing in the middle of the road taking photos and loving it) get hit by cars every year).






They say the moss is full of bugs.
I don't care....I just want to stare at it:







A. Lot.







I loved the fact that there was the oak tree with moss and the palms right below it:







Can you tell this is one of my favorite places in the whole world?







Wait.  Maybe not.
Maybe it's THIS one:







I so loved how the puddles reflected the heavenly scene before me:
















In Savannah, these tree-lined streets are everywhere.
I'd be dangerous driving there on an every day basis...I wouldn't be watching
the traffic!:



















So, I hope I met my goal today:
To show you what Heaven will look like when you get there.
