I snapped this picture yesterday morning at my Daughters school.

It's in the playground at Mangum Elementary in Bahama.

I am not sure of the diameter of the trunk but it would have to exceed 8 feet. The school tries to keep the kids off the roots.

Isn't that a beauty. My grade school yard was full of such beauties. Of course that was 40+ years ago and in Ohio. We had an opportunity to go by there a couple of months ago and all the old ones were gone. Thanks for sharing.
