Athens Georgia. I lived there when I was a kid. This canon is really close to the tree that owns itself.

Sadly, that tree is now the second generation of tree that owns itself

Oh wow! It’s been probably 39 years since I’ve been there.

The original tree was hundreds of years old so you probably knew its seedling. It is an interesting landmark though

This might be the only time I’ve ever seen someone use the incorrect version of canon/cannon this way instead of the other way around.

Almost a mile apart. The cannon is by the court house and the tree is near Brumby Hall.

Yeah, I wouldn’t consider it close at all. I guess it’s close in that it’s located in the same town?
