Olive tree

This olive tree is very old. It must be close to 100. It's located in an olive grove not far from my home, among many other very old trees just like it.

  2. That's a tall one. Everyone should have an olive grove near her home.
    Nice, we both posted olive trees today. Mine is at my nun friends' place nearby.

  7. 100 years old? Amazing.
    If I had my own olive tree grove I would think I had died and gone to heaven.
