"Florida’s most famous tree was a bald cypress that grew to be 118 feet tall, about as high as a 12-story building. But its height was nothing compared with its age. At about 3,500 years old, it was one of the world’s oldest trees. It began growing roughly around the time King Tut ruled Egypt." WOW- That is a big tree!!!!!!

"Having survived hurricanes, droughts, and lightning storms, it seemed indestructible. But on Monday, Florida residents were shocked and saddened to learn that the famous landmark had caught fire and collapsed. All that remained of its long history was a 30-foot piece of split wood attached to its trunk. " WOW- I fell sorry for a tree that old to go up in smoke.
