Sycamore

I have a spot reserved in my heart for the mighty Sycamore tree. One currently stands in my front lawn, planted by my grandparents decades ago, providing our south facing home with much needed relief from the onslaught of the mid-summer sun.  I drove through Kokomo, IN this past weekend which lays claim to being the home of the Worlds Largest Sycamore Stump…and only learned of its existence today!  So, don’t make the same mistake as me.  Next time you pass through Kokomo, Indiana be sure to see this behemoth for yourself.
