I said I was skipping the stumps in my yard. Just changed my mind. Took this photo a few minutes ago of the stump of a big old sweet gum tree I had cut down a couple years ago. It has become a nursery for a variety of wild plants. You have to look hard to see that the stump is there. In the distance, in the upper left, is a newer, much smaller stump.
Not new but not as old as it looks. Here's a Jamestown village scene as it appeared to me in 2001. It was meant to look as I might have seen it if I'd been there in 1630. Everyone would have been dressed differently, of course.
