If The Tree Could Talk

 Sit under the shade of the Half-Way Oak, one of the Famous Trees of Texas.  Listen with the little Cherokee girl as the tree weaves a tale.  From acorn to oak, the spirit of the tree comes alive with the stories of the Cherokee Nation and famous marshals and outlaws traveling the old Ft. Griffin stagecoach pass.  The tree talks with the wind and his favorite little person, bringing him from tears to triumph recalling 200 years of history.
