S o n g s from the W o o d

Here's proof that "Corkbark firs" grow in northern Arizona. "Walking through forests - of palm tree apartments --- Scoff at the monkeys who live in their dark tents, Down by the waterhole --- drunk every Friday --- Eating their nuts - saving their raisins for Sunday. Lions and tigers, who wait in the shadows --- They're fast but they're lazy, and sleep in GREEN meadows. Let's bungle in the jungle! Well, that's alright by me. I'm a tiger when I want love, But I'm a snake if we disagree." (Jethro Tull - 1974) Just some pretty trees growing along the Inner Basin Trail, east of AZ's San Francisco Peaks. This photo was taken above 9,000 feet in elevation. October 15, 2008

Re: Beautiful

Thanks, Marc! I'm trying to get one together
right now...

No snow yet on the San Francisco Peaks! There
might have been a "dusting" at 12,000'.
All the leaves have fallen on the aspens.
Best regards - Larry

Those can't be...

Arizona pines Larry. Most of the Arizona pines I've seen are all black looking. Ask Dennis, he has made the same observation.

Re: Those can't be...

Wasn't there a song back in the 1960s titled:
"Paint It Black?"

I'm going to have to retire my paintbrush!
It's getting me into way too much TROUBLE!!!!!!

Re: Corkbark Fir

Thanks, I made the correction. Geez, I'm not
used to seeing fir trees - guess I didn't
know how high I was at the time.

That was "some windstorm" that blew through
the other day, wasn't it??? Makes me want
to get out my "skull & crossbones" KITE.
