Welcome to the group zinnia. My older brothers, both world class climbers, would climb to the top of a tall sweetgum tree which was about a half-mile south of Flournoy-Lucas Rd. I was too little to climb and would have to listen from the ground about how cool the view and how you could see the checkerboard. That became my sole quest in life. To climb up and see it. It took, I guess five years, of climbing as far up as I could, chickening out and coming down. I must have been 10or12 when I finally made it up that tree. Wow, there it is! I wasted five years of my life for this?
