Tree Limb

July 31, 2020: Daily, I walk past this suspended tree branch. Sometimes I wonder about the stories this branch could tell. In the early 1960s, builders constructed the Casa Conejo housing track in Newbury Park. Part of this construction included these support wires to a telephone pole. A proud new homeowner added a small tree to their landscaping. Over the decades, the tree grew. This branch enveloped a support wire. Finally, workers removed the overgrown tree. This three-foot branch - left behind - provides proof of the once large tree.
