Kentucky Color: Erosion Control 2022-01-11 - Adair Co., KY - Photo by Billy Joe Fudge. Well over a hundred years ago, when this ol' White oak was just a young sapling, his roots were underground. I'm sure there were several existing trees that had been holding the soil in this ephemeral channel that have since succumbed to the forces of nature, leaving this tree to fight the erosion battle alone. Now, with many of his roots exposed, it is plain that those same forces of nature are still at play and that there will be just a matter of time before he goes the way of the prior generation. He should be an inspiration to us all! Paired photo: Kentucky Color: A matter of time Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
