Neat, but I ain't ever seen nuthing like that. I'll bet that's a giveaway clue for someone. That must turn into a spikey nut.

where are you from--i should say where do you live? this tree is not real popular but it is starting to get used alot in the northeast,it is very tolerant of pollution etc. by the way is that your log cabin? nice. take care. try again just for kicks i will let you know the bark is very light gray and rough looking if no one gets it by morning i will send bark next.

That is my sauna in northern Saskatchewan Canada. There is a cabin up from there. 16km, 6 portages off the road, kinda private. Lake trout, northern pike, moose, wolves, many many black bears. The water is tea colored with tannin but dip your cupable. That's why that trout is so black. Or it's the rare lake X black lake trout. I feel it's possibly one of then least polluted places in the world, just down the road from the uranium mines. Don't come up there you wouldn't like it.
