Nice Surprise

Ok so this is probably nothing to write home about but it got me a little fired up so I thought I'd share. 

So over the winter we'd pull handfuls of trachy hair off one of the trees to use to start our fires. It's crazy flammable. Anyways I was cleaning up around the yard today and noticed a yellow spot on the trunk of said tree. I took a closer look and noticed it was an old boot. So I cleaned some more and got some more yellow, and some more, and some more. I dunno if this is a typical coloration of old trachy boots but im hoping it stays.

I’ve not seen that before. Very tight boots for sure.

Right! It somewhat resembles the trunk of my Phoenix sylvestris - definitely gives it a unique look.

That's the other thing I noticed while cleaning. The overlapping of old boots is tighter than that of my other trachies. It almost has the appearance of snake skin
