sandcreek4, those definitely have the appearance of some of the old thong trees. They were called thong trees because of the rawhide and/or forked branches used to make them take that shape. Kind of like American Bonsai . . . which in many cases resulted in the trees looking to be much younger than they really are as the manipulation caused them to grow more slowly.
I'd really love to see more of them if you have them.
