LOOK :o :o :o :o :o what I found in an Alabama motel parking lot the other week.  My first time there and man was it hot.    Made me think of y'all down south and hope this helps MM have a great day! :D :D :D


 

I was down there a week in the town of Phil Campbell, working on a re-building project stemming from the tornadoes last year.  http://www.waff.com/story/18650739/group-helps-phil-campbell-church-hit-by-last-years-storm-rebuild  If you watch the video, please ignore the intro about the contractor being arrested, has nothing to do with it.  ::)

Those look Sweetgummery but my Sweetgum leaves have 5 "lobes".  My Japanese Maple has 7 lobes and are skinnier.  Those have 8 lobes with a much broader center.  Our tree experts will sniff it out.

Week of Memorial day.  M-W temps were in the 90's then Th-F were cooler.   Mostly setting trusses and nailing 5/8 decking, got to me around 3-4pm.  Sitting in shade 10 min/hr in the pm was the ticket. Once in the car for 20 min with the AC on.  'Course if I was riding a sawmill under an umbrella it would have been different.  :(

When it is in the 90s and high humidity it gets tough. Especially if you are out in the sun. Takes lots of water. Hard to believe how much a person sweats in high humidity.

About a quarter million BF of SYP  in the frame I think, came from Mississippi!  Contractors in my group said they don't usually see this quality lumber up north.  Provided by mill owner at mill cost, & trucked for free over to AL.

No it ain't.  I sweat so bad I sweat out my eyeballs!

So has anybody figured out the leaf?

Looks like a variety of Japanese Maple, Acer palmatum.  There is an extra large whack of varieties.  It is a popular landscape plant.
