TUESDAY TRICKERY

Up at the pass between Woodchute and Mingus Mountains there is a very unique tree.

While towering over its neighbors it blends into the forest.

But a closer inspection found it to be fenced off. 


Surprise!

It's NOT a tree.

It's a cleverly disguised cell phone tower.


To quote a punch line from an old joke, "Are you going to believe me or your lyin' eyes?"

    Very interesting. I will be taking my aluminum beanie on the next drive to Jerome.

    We've seen fake trees like that on some of our travels through California.

    Yeah, those things are awful. I'd rather just have it look like a cell phone tower.

    Fooled me! I thought the things at the top were collecting atmospheric data. Upon a re-view, I DID notice that the branches were too uniform to be nature.

    We have those here. Sometimes we see a palm tree tower. First time was a shock.

    I mean. It's slightly better, but still. Not fooling anyone, really.

    The first nine words of your post are thrilling and sound like the opening of a western.
