Wednesday, July 21, 2021 -- Manhattan Beach Pier

The large ship offshore is now closer to Manhattan Beach Pier.
Wonder what it's dong out there for multiple days...



 

Sunday, July 18, 2021 -- Long Beach Antique Swap Meet -- Wood Slab -- Part 2

It's got a finish on it.
Probably used to be a table?
No idea what kind of wood it is.
Also, a strange shape for a tree trunk...  Maybe it was a very large limb of a very large tree?

It was cut on a diagonal to get it to be longer in one direction, so it could have been a kinda round trunk/limb, but still has the "bumped out" shape on one side...

Don't know if this damage was there when it was made into a table or if it happened during use...

This is the bottom side of the slab (about 2" thick).





Appears to be a fast growing tree.  The rings don't appear to be very tight together...


Some pretty good damage on this end of the slab also.  Appears to be chew marks...  Dog?
