Yep, that's poison oak all right. People look at me like I have three heads when I tell them that it *can* grow as a tree - as well as a vine, ground cover, or shrub.
Random photos: Got anything interesting, unique, strange?

Nasty stuff. I caught it several times as a kid...the itch.
From a fellow amputee back east.... Darlington at Sunset
I'm gonna kill it. I've got it pretty much cleared off my property. This is just over on the neighbor's. They're older and not really able to keep up with it.
No mention of the vertical photo orientation. I'll take that as confirmation that it's use here was appropriate
Had this guy looking in our front storm door at about 1:15 this morning. Luckily our three kitties were hanging out in their caged “catio” out back at that time.
Very random and there’s a photo

Pretty sure CO laws for using run away ramps are like every other state I've driven in commercially...
If so that's gonna be a HUGE FINE if they find the driver needed to use it due to negligence, such as improperly adjusted and maintained brakes, undocumented pre-trips, excessive speed coming down the hill, etc., not to mention the tow fee, and potentially repair fees for the ramp!!!

Contains enough concrete to wrap twice around the Earth's equator if poured into a standard sidewalk that is 4 feet wide and 4 inches thick and Could build a highway from Seattle, Washington to Miami, Florida.
-The Grand Coulee Dam
What are the holes in the face of the dam?
Those little holes are 8.5 feet in diameter — you could fit a standard-size truck in any one of them. They are used to discharge water through the dam when the elevation of the water in the lake is lower than the drum gates at the top of the spillway.
It towers 550 feet high and spans 5,223 feet across the Columbia River in Washington.
It is the largest electric-power producing facility in the United States, generating enough energy for about 5 million homes.
Its reservoir is Franklin D. Roosevelt Lake, which stretches 151 miles long
Third Powerplant: Its massive expansion in the 1970s made it the largest hydropower plant in North America.
During the Cold War, the U.S. rushed to build the Third Powerplant just to reclaim the title of world's largest hydro-producer from the USSR.
The structure is so unbelievably heavy that it actually compresses the Earth's crust underneath it.
Massive generators: Each of the largest individual rotors in the Third Powerplant weighs as much as 3,000 average cars.
Invisible tunnels: Over eight miles of hidden inspection galleries and tunnels run straight through the solid concrete interior.

@Zorba is not a fan?

Probably because the picture isn't in landscape
No, Zorba is totally a fan - but he poked the wrong button. Corrected!

Are you trolling us Arizona folks with this picture of so much water?
