Natural wonders #2: typhoons and trees






Pulled up by the roots during last month's typhoon (a no. 10, which is hurricane strength).  I was surprised at how shallow the tree's roots were - no wonder it didn't stay up.  40 foot high, but no depth - lots to show on the surface, but no foundation.  I'm sure lots of meaningful analogies spring instantly to mind. 


This one didn't bend, so it snapped half way up.  Keep those inspirational life applications coming.  You never know when you are going to need one!
