I My Son, SuperPizzaBoy and I were attending a function at a local elementary school a couple weeks ago during a beautiful Oklahoma Autumn day under a blue sky when we discovered this tree. I told him that it was a Whomping Tree, kind of like the Whomping Willow in the Harry Potter books.
SPB doesn’t believe a word I say any more, hasn’t in years. He just walks up to the tree and laughs at me.
For views of the sky from all over the world check out Skywatch Friday.
I guess all of your teasing has had its effects on SPB. Not all bad to raise a kid with a few healthy doubts.
Cool looking tree!
Smart kid, nice photo!

Genious 🙂
Smart young man! AND a gorgeous tree! Terrific shot, Yogi!
Have a great weekend!

All the best

I dunno man, it looks like it could be a whomping tree. Don’t get too close.
Cool tree. Nice shot.
With the wind you get out there I could see where that tree could beat someone to death if you got too close.
Fun. Like the shot.
I never doubted it. He’s got Dad’s number.
Nice blue sky, too.
how many pizzas can you SPB eat? Can he beat my 13 year old, who ate 2 big pizzas?
Looks like a whomping tree to me, great shot!
Must have been his “lucky blue sky day” as it looks like that whomping tree as holding back. Someday he’ll believe you again.
Beautiful and lovely shot !!Unseen Rajasthan
You mean it’s not a Whomping Tree?
Sunny 🙂
i was such a realist with my 12-year-old. now, i tell my 2 and 4 year old i was a superstar in a past life and i have walked on the moon. it’s great to see their eyes grow big!
That makes me smile, the fact that SPB doesn’t believe a word you say anymore but still laughs, because that shows a great relationship and also this is a great photograph.
Looks like a warm fall day! Great photo!
