Old tree trunks

It is not at all uncommon here to see trunks of old trees jutting out of groves of cedar, juniper, and pinon pine trees. There is something about those old trunks that I find fascinating. I always stop and stare at them for a while.

The white you can barely see in the background are the few remaining meat chickens, enjoying a stroll through what's left of the rows of squash.
