Variety of Irrelevant Items

All these topics are irrelevant to the business of art; I’m showing you anyway because they are mildly amusing and even slightly interesting. If you just came here for the art, you will leave disappointed today. If you just enjoy visiting because you can, then welcome.

We have animals in our yard in Three Rivers.

We have animals at our windows.

You may have noticed that I have a curious mind. There is a gloriously beautiful glowing tree in front of the Courthouse Gallery in Exeter, and I’ve never seen one anywhere else. A red oak of some sort is the best guess my students, Mr. Google, and I could come up with.

Do you know what this tree is?

  1. Yes, same oak leaves we have here in MA

    • Marcia, I think it must be a Scarlet Oak, and I will look into their survival around here.

  2. It looks like a pin oak which is very prevalent in our area! 🙂

    • Thank you, Stacy! How did the tree materialize in California, all the way from Pennsylvania? And why aren’t there more of this beautiful tree?

  3. Scarlet oak

    • Thank you, Anonymous! My mom found the same answer in her Sunset Garden book.

  4. It’s a variety of oak

    • Thank you, Leigh! That was our guess from the leaf shape, but none of us have seen this particular variety before.
