if trees gave off wifi signals we would be planting so many trees and we'd probably save the planet too.

Thank you for your kind comments and favs! There is a a very unusual story to go with this photo and how it came to be. I told my wife I'd take her to Monroeville near Pittsburgh so she could get a piece of jewelry that she earned just before she retired. I put the address in my GPS and got on I-376 towards Pittsburgh. I assumed that the GPS would take me to the PA Turnpike then to the Monroeville exit so I was paying little attention to the GPS. On I-376 from where we get on it there are two exits before you have to pay a toll. I had just passed the second exit when I noticed that the GPS had wanted me to get off that exit. Why? I have no idea! I paid the toll and the next exit the GPS told me to get off 376. So I was obedient even though I knew that the Turnpike exit was further south. After exiting I followed the GPS as it had me heading back north and eventually it took me to a town further south and get back on 376! Don't ask me. But while driving on those back roads we passed a farm with beautiful rolling hills and fenced off pastures. That's where I saw this tree. Yesterday was a beautiful sunny day so we went for a ride in search for this tree that we didn't have time to take its picture the first time. I still have no idea why the GPS wanted us to exit 376 only to have us get back on it.
@joansmor - I have learned through a friend that there is a term, "Death by GPS". Use your favorite search engine to look it up. There are harrowing stories of people who have had close calls with death due to their following their GPS to a destination and ended up stranded.
