Haycorns

Day 352: Western Washington is famous for its Doug-fir forests and the other evergreens interspersed throughout. One does not associate deciduous trees with the state, although we have cottonwoods, alders, maples and a few others. However, oaks (primarily Garry) are fairly well confined to the prairies of the southwestern counties, so when I needed haycorns for a project, I turned to my east-coast sisters with a plea. Patty was in a position to gather quite a few in various sizes. Some have worm holes in them, so the lot will be given a bake in the oven to eliminate any unwelcome visitors. Tiggers may not like haycorns, but I do, and this windfall should keep me in crafting material for a long time to come!
