Just the other day I was putzing around in the driveway, waiting for my ride.

I was noting the really cool texture on one of the trees that faces our driveway.

I quickly snapped a photo, and walked away.

Looking at it later, I saw him – the one I’ll call the Grumpy Guardian.

He’s been guarding our driveway all this time without our knowledge.

A little over 30 years!

He really made my day!

Perhaps he needs a Christmas hat?

Hope he made you smile!

Until next time.
