Description
Still holding the remaining steps to what probably was once a wonderful treehouse, a gnarled ancient live oak sits next to the beach in Bay St. Louis MS shortly after Hurricane Katrina obliterated the quaint art town. If it could talk, it would speak of many storms through the years but none that compared to Katrina. Battered, but still here, it evokes the spirit and resilience of the live oak trees as well as the people who choose to live here and rebuild their precious coastal towns.
