I think if I were Jack, I’d prefer climbing this sturdy tree rather than a flimsy beanstalk. Just saying.
I remember nothing about this photo, although I see it’s sidewalk sale time, but there’s some blue which is what’s needed. 🙂
In lieu of a beanstalk and peeking at blue

This, that and the other thing 
That tree would certainly provide a wealth of opportunities for a young tree climber.
It’s in the park so probably no one ever climbs it but what a waste. It’s a gigantic tree, which you can’t tell as much because I had to put it in a square for the challenge but even in a normal shot it’s difficult to get the entire thing in unless at some distance. Swiss Family Robinson might like this one! 🙂
I agree Janet! Definitely better to climb this tree!
Certainly more stable! 🙂
😊
I agree with you !
🙂
Yes, a tree is better ladder than a beanstalk. Poor Jack.
Yes, poor Jack. It’s almost as if he was living in a fairy tale.
I definitely agree with you on the tree, ha! Hope you are having a good week and ready for a good weekend, Janet 😀
We’re getting rain, Madison, which is the most important thing!! Also getting ready to go to Wyoming soon so as you ca well imagine, I’m happy. 🙂 How are things there? I’ll try to shoot you an email one of these days.
That looks like a great tree to climb to spy or daydream. I love your framing of the blue car!!
Glad you enjoyed the framing, Deborah. That tree was my favorite tree at McDowell. It’s the grandfather/mother tree to me and the shot doesn’t begin to show how large and imposing it really is.
🥰
oh yes definitely climbing a tree rather than a bean stalk – and no giants at the top of trees either!
I can’t say for sure there aren’t any giants because the top is quite high but I never saw a trace of one. 🙂
A very nice blue car, indeed. I can’t lie, the main reason I consider my current car an upgrade over the last is that this one is blue. Otherwise, it’s exactly the same model.
🙂 As good a reason as any.
Better not stand below that tree too long, Janet – there’s bound to be a giant coming down at some point looking for his goose…
🙂
Oooooohhhh, I love that tree! 🌞
It was my favorite at the park.
Wow – some cool tree and the jack connectij was creative / I can imagine him climbing
Also – the second photo is one of those extra unique and so one of a kind that it was fun zooming in – street shot with the blue on the signs too
I think Jack would be much safer climbing a tree than a beanstalk, that’s for sure. 🙂
Yes – but did the magic beanstalk grow in a way that had sturdy little steps? I shouted think it did – lol
Hmmm, I’ve never seen a beanstalk that did but then I’ve never seen one that went up into the sky and that someone could climb, so…
Hahaha

And your tree seems like something right out of a fairy tale
I’m sure the real Jack would also prefer the same. Climbing beanstalks is outdated now 😁
I didn’t realize it was outdated, but I’m sure that’s true. 🙂
