Caveat: Tree #432

It rained so much today that I didn’t even try to walk somewhere. I didn’t take a picture of a tree. I decided to post one from my archive.
This tree is in northwest Seoul, Korea. I took the picture on July 1, 2017, while visiting the grounds of the Korean Shamanism Museum (샤머니즘박물관).

Caveat: Tree #431

With the sun shining on the trees by the water, you’d not realize from the picture that it was below freezing outside.

A few days ago, before Andrew got here, it was snowing. I took this picture of a tree off the deck.

This is another tree seen at Kasaan yesterday. It is small and suspended in a stream.

Caveat: Tree #420

My brother Andrew has come to visit for about a week. So I went to the ferry terminal to pick him up. Inside the ferry terminal, I saw this tree, made out of a… tree.

Caveat: Tree #419

This tree’s capture is incidental to a much more important pile of rocks.

Caveat: Tree #415

This tree has been featured here on this blog before. But I liked the green shade of the water in the rockpit pond.

Caveat: Tree #413

This tree seems less committed to verticality than your average tree.

Caveat: Tree #411

A tree up the hillside a little ways. Since it was neither raining nor snowing, I decided it was a good day to go up there.

Caveat: Tree #408

This tree may have appeared before – because of the artfully piled rocks next to it. That pile of rocks is taller than I am.

Caveat: Tree #405

A tree of your choice can be seen on the ridge to the southwest, backlit by the dawn’s moonset.

Caveat: Tree #403

This tree is a guest tree in this tree-picture-posting place. The picture was taken in April, 2018, in Ilsan, Korea.

Caveat: Tree #402

This tree (which tree?) has the mountain across the inlet as its background.

I saw this chunk of snow eroded by rain into an unusual shape, so I placed it on top of a wooden post and took a picture. I call it “snowcritter.”

Caveat: Tree #401

Actually, this is a picture of snow. The snow is along the road, melted into a strange shape by rain. There is a tree, out of focus, in the background.

Caveat: Tree #400

I wanted to do something special for tree number four hundred.
But I failed to take a picture of a tree today.
So I had an idea. I’m a linguist (by college training). Linguists draw “trees” – diagrams of sentences. And I thought of a great sentence that benefits from having a tree drawn of it.
The sentence is: “Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo.”
This sentence is hard to understand. Bear in mind that there are three groups of buffalo in this sentence, but they are all from the town of Buffalo – probably Buffalo, Minnesota, rather than the better known Buffalo, New York. And these buffalo from Buffalo like to buffalo (which is to say, “annoy”) other buffalo. It starts to come clear.
Here is a tree diagram.

Have a nice day.
