Our tree topper went kaput last year and we haven’t gone out to get a new one yet. I came home today and my 7 year old son was complaining that...
Presently a breezy 37, with a projected low of 27. Beating a dead horse here with my fall 2021 mix of black birch and aspen, with a single red oak...

I seem to remember hearing whispers a long time ago about CIA agents being tangled in drug smuggling throughout Central and South America....
It's how groupthink starts. Show a Rorschach inkblot test to someone and ask them if they see a horse. Chances are they might agree with you....

It changes for me year to year depending on what’s ready. Last year it was mostly black locust, red oak, ash and cherry. This year the bulk will...
Yeah I would say what you have Ralphie Boy is a dead ringer for the couple American elm scores I’ve gotten. Funny how once I see the words “red...
No... I wasn’t even aware. That’s either a funny coincidence or I’m in tune to the matrix big time today. I haven’t listened to Santana in a long...
I’m changing my vote to elm. I’ve seen some red maple with similar bark but never a dead one that was that solid looking. The discolored heart...
