dead tree in rural Illinois

So, we were driving across northern Illinois and saw this dead tree.  We liked how it looked, so I made my owner pull a u-turn and get some pictures of me with it.  It's located on Hunter Road in Boone County, IL - just before the border with McHenry County.

aaghhh

See the Honda?  Also, the sign represents County Line Road, so where Boone County ends and McHenry County begins
