Almost Wordless Wednesday

Today, we were remembering another era of our lives, well before Shyla was born, when we lived on the west coast. Some pine trees there produced the biggest pine cones that I've ever seen. We can't remember what species of tree it was but here's the pine cone!
It's amazing, isn't it? Happy Wednesday.

    Sugar pine.
    "Pinus lambertiana is the tallest and most massive pine tree, and has the longest cones of any conifer." [Wiki] They grow all around our cabin in the San Bernardino National Forest :~)))

    Thank you so much for your wonderful blog! (I'm ashamed to say that although I visit every day, I get around to commenting just once or twice a year.) Thanks for the great posts on dog training, camera trapping, desert skies and so much more. Your blog's a real treasure, and a terrific resource. Please give Shyla a pat for me!

    That is so huge it almost looks fake. Never knew a pine tree could produce something that big.
