    Any ideas what this is? It is fairly dry but not easy to split. 20200912_151812.jpg 20200912_151815.jpg 20200912_151820.jpg

    Hey, texas4life2003 , Welcome to the site! Pull a stump up to the fire and grab a cup of coffee! I figured some kind of Red Oak variety peculiar to Texas also. I was born in Texas and have near kin around Austin, Sabinal/Uvalde and other parts. Long Family history in Texas. Look forward to your posts and pictures!
