Oh, what a story it could tell
COLUMBUS – In the early morning of Sept. 8, a tree shed a limb. That would not be significant if it were not for the fact that the tree that shed the limb was officially the largest in Texas. This 500-plus-year-old Live Oak tree sits on private property in the Columbus city limits on 1340 Walnut Street. It has been visited by tourists and passed by so many times by locals that no one realized the shedding of the limb may have cost the old tree its coveted title bestowed upon it by the Texas Forest Service in 2016. 11/29/2023 23:00
