Here I stand, a tiny human, at the root wad of maybe the biggest drift log I've seen, a gargantuan Sitka spruce.

Here I stand, a tiny human, at the root wad of maybe the biggest drift log I've seen, a gargantuan Sitka spruce. It's been lodged in the sand of First Beach at La Push for several years. The beast undoubtedly came down on high flows one of the rivers of the Olympic rain forests. My sweetie took the pic. #ThickTrunkTuesday #AltText

@GPJohnston For anyone that hasn't seen the sign

@GPJohnston We see a lot of potential guitars here...

@therockfiles @GPJohnston I was gonna say, there's a lot of potential music in a big ol' Sitka spruce.

(I like Adirondack, what a snob.)

@fivetonsflax @GPJohnston Hi Ben, who or what is Adirondack?

@therockfiles @GPJohnston Hi! It's another species of spruce, which was the main source of acoustic guitar tops in the US until WWII. Some people think it sounds better than Sitka.

@GPJohnston wonderful. And might I also say that when you look at the thumbnail it looks like you have a long head of blonde hair blowing out behind you, like a model in a photo shoot, but when you enlarge the image you realise it's just light on the tree behind your head

@GPJohnston Definitely a subject that benefits by having a human in the shot.
