Magic Tree: Columbia, Missouri

The Magic Tree


Will Treelighter as been lighting a crab apple tree in Columbia, Missouri, since 1995.  He wraps every branch with lights. Every season his design becomes more elaborate. So many people came to see the tree that in 2010 it's location was moved to a central location rather than keeping it in a neighborhood.

I was taking one of my students home after she had helped me get the classroom ready for January.  She wanted me to drive by the tree.  Since I had only heard of it, and had no clue how to get there, I agreed.  What a magical tree it is.  After dropping off my scholar, I meandered my way back to the tree and got out to explore.
