Safety Harbor Florida - Philippe Park's Live Oak Trees

Safety Harbor Florida has some beautiful old live oak trees and those that reside in Philippe Park on Tampa Bay are certainly no exception.

While taking a long walk though the park recently, I took time to get a few photos of these magnificent trees. If only they could transmit all that they have witnessed through their long lives, think of the history we could learn!

White people have only lived in this area since the Spaniards came. Before that, this area was an important settlement for Native Americans. Philippe Park's mound was an important lookout point over Tampa Bay. Ah, the history these trees could share...................

Good Morning Barbara-Jo,  My sister lives in St. Agostine and one road just outside of town has trees that are so big and overlep on the road, I always remember them.  Thanks for sharing.

Boy that is one huge tree!!!!.  I don't understand the jacket Ronnie is wearing???? It's 81 here.  BTW, I went to my nursery yesterday and asked about an orchid tree.  They had 2 but they get to 40' in height.  I guess thats not for us in a gated development on a golf course, darn.

BarbaraJo- we must be on the same wave length- I was thinking about that just the other day.... thinking about our time here on earth and what the trees would say if they could talk.   Wonder what they would say about us.

Barbara,

I personally like oak trees and especially ones that have lived a long life. Yes we could learn alot if the trees spoke.

Barbara-Jo, They grow very slowly and by their size you know that generations have passed.

Those are some impressively large Oaks, Barbara-Jo.  They've seen a lot of history.
