Wow, sorry dude, I didn't even see that. Somebody texted me that exact photo and I laughed my *** off. I will have to redeem myself by posting a random photo of the subject of your choice. LMK.

Welp, I've got a second home again. It's a bit of a fixxer upper but with a little paint and some throw pillows it should be fine.

It's a synthetic product designed to simulate aged wood. It's built in a style formally referred to as "nouveau-retro-bucolic." Turn of the century tenant farmer is the target look, I believe.

There are pecan trees, a Chinaberry tree (mahogany family), and a hardwood I don't readily recognize. Anyone know what these leaves are?

I just Googled it and the leaves aren't shaped right for a white oak.

I should probably pick some cotton.

I believe rleete was half right.
Many oak species are"white oaks".
I think what you have there is a "swamp chestnut oak", sometimes called a "swamp white oak", or Quercus michauxii if you're fancy.

That leaf is shaped right. Thank you both.

I finally got a set of cheap 15x9 for the track. SM7 fits good on it and it lets me upgrade from one of the narrower spare wheel sets I have (Helium in 6.5). I also have 15x8 6ul and some Rota Slipstream in 15x6.5 acquired with a parts car along the way. Time to free up some garage space.
