The tree finally won. We have held out replacing the stone steps at Oriole because they are the last piece of history at the resort. Those steps have been in place since the 1930’s. But the history didn’t matter to the roots of the tree. The steps were breaking up and becoming a hazard. When the steps are completed I’ll post a picture.
