Giant Californian Redwood forest.

We have spent a lot of time searching for the remnants of this alleged forest (You may rmember our dismal failure at Muir woods) and could not believe our luck, when we chanced upon it in the garden of our B and B.
Planted around 1824. (I am open to correction as I know I am unlikely to be right), This particular specimen provides excellent shade for the guest house, and is almost certainly the reason why all the downstairs floors are out of horizontal, giving the guests many of the benefits of inebriation without the hangover. An observed benefit of the uneven floor was that skirting Boards were well dusted in the hope of finding any loose change that inevitably rolled and accumulated around the rooms perimeter.
Front left you will see Penelope, anticipating another sun soaked day.
