When I was 6, my family took a 3 week trip out West, and among other things, went through one of the “drive through” trees. I think it was the one in Yosemite, that went down in ‘69 — someday hopefully I can find a couple old photos to figure it out.
I still have a little toothpick holder, and a toy truck, made out of redwood, as remembrances.
I never made it back there (except to a couple business conventions with no time to see the sights), except for Hoover Dam on one trip.
Ditto on getting back there while I still can!!
I don't know if we HAVE to; but I'd suspect most of us will.
No better pictures than these 2?
There are more pictures in here... https://www.bing.com/images/search?q=famed+giant+sequoia+with+drive-thru+tunnel+topples+in+storm&FORM=HDRSC2
So do you! - Only, I can’t roll on the floor laughing. If I
get down I can’t get back up. :o)
I'm almost there; too.
