Shagbark Hickory


I came across some Shagbark hickory in my hike the other day. There were 7 leaflets.

The bark is shaggy though this photo does not show it well.

  1. Gorgeous! Makes me want to sit down under it and write for hours. There is a mall in Santa Monica that has a tree growing right in the middle of it, and my delight is to sit there with my cup of coffee and laptop and write to my heart's content. I especially love BARK! Something very mysterious about it.

  2. Nature is not office friendly. But its a nice thought. I do have a Hennessey hammock that has mosquito netting. I sat inside that one day and studied the Bible. Frustrating the 1000 mosquitoes that were trying to get at me from the outside.
