Got wood?....he he he
I just wanted to share my new peice of driftwood with everyone. It is about 5 feet tall. I am probably going to cutt it in half and have 2 nice pieces. It was just sitiing in my mother-in-laws backyard. Who says you can't get along with your mother-in-law!

So, Mr Malik, are you planning a tanuki? If not, this piece looks nice enough as a piece in its own right, to display next to your benches.

Big Smile Serpent in the grass!
If you set the wood, as is, on the ground, it might look like a serpent (or dragon)in the grass or on the mulch or rocks, pebbles, etc. It is a lovely piece of driftwood. I wouldn't cut it.

Funny looking Kangaroos in Sacremento. More like a Bungarra.

I am planning my first attempt at a tanuki planting, but most people are saying that I should not cutt it in half. I don't own a home so I only have a balcony to display it on and I'm not sure that would be so nice ya know.

Most of us would hold on to it for the future time we did have a home and yard
