MMmmmmmmmmm looks like the Kebabs and Pizza place is open....

Just kidding, nice trees! I'll try to take some pictures of Eucs around here....you would be amazed at how well they grow here. They were planted as quick growing wood for railroad tracks, which they proved singularly unsuitable for. Then for windbreaks.....well.... they sure do break in the wind!

Now they just grow and drop big branches and make a nuisance. But people love their look and their twisty trunks....
