TREE REMNANTS ON A WIRE--

It appears a tree grew to quite a large size and enveloped the guy wires of a utility pole in this alley off South Main St., in Mansfield.

The tree either died or became a problem for the utility lines and was cut into pieces.  The log from the stump to the first series of branches is gone from this image as are all the remaining pieces of the tree, leaving this large section of branch joints hanging in mid air.

From the weathering of the woody remains and the rotted condition of the stump it appears this visual novelty has been hanging in this alley quite some time.

This view is West toward S. Main St., and the southbound truck in the background is turning West onto Greenwood Ave., just south of the Culligan Quality Water shop.
