Yesterday I accidentally found myself standing under this, the largest Cork Tree (aka Wishing Tree) in Australia. Apparently Edward Parker brang the seedling over from England in a jam tin and planted it in Wood St Tenterfield 1861 where I found it, my wow moment to share.
If you have a wow moment, plz share it with us 🙂

My wow moment was yesterday when a storm started in Sydney.
The lightning and thunder were amazing. It was some of the loudest thunder I've ever heard!
Mother nature is pretty cool.

I know you're feeling pretty crappy at the moment @TAB. It's not gonna cheer you up but I thought of you when I saw this. It's a wow moment for me. Storm coming in over Moota Bay in Jan this year. Not sure how familiar you are with this part of Yorkes.
