From a tiny acorn
 

Well not really, just the root from a water oak. As the name implies the damn roots go everywhere in search of water. Under driveways, slabs up the gutter drains. Which is where the photo came from.For some reason I can't spell drains. But I finally wore up. Why in hell was I trying to spell it with a G. As grains. damnifiknow.

Some trees are a pain in the arse...and in general terms, I'd consider myself a bit of a tree hugger really. :/

Whoa, that's a pretty aggressive root.

There are no tiny acorns in this country -they're all fricking enormous. As are the oak trees and leaves

Buster, gutter drain as in pipe in the ground or downspout from the eavestrough(gutter)?

Impressive.

A drain under sidewalk, yes in ground. BUt wait, there's more. Today I opened my kitchen door, no screen and a damn swarm of bees met me. Oh boy the fun I'm having.

So what's the buzz? :runaway:
