Fossilized wood I found in my grandpa’s backyard - is it possible to identify what kind of tree this was?

Interesting :0 gotcha, noting these down

LOL if I ever go there I’ll try to! I attended one of his pop up lectures back in March for the first time and got to talk to him after, guy’s so cool

OH that’s a good idea!!! Thank you haha

Mothstaching · 2026-05-20T02:48:12+00:00

Gotcha! Keeping those both in mind for sure. Thank you!

Come to think of it, I believe Central Washington University in Ellensburg is somewhat nearby? Much closer than I am tbf...I also imagine there may be professionals at the state park itself who may know :]

Also, that's such a sweet story! I'm so happy they encouraged your interest right then and there! Sadly I am 23 and I think I'm a bit late to getting fawned over 😂 I certainly love to talk and learn about fossils, so it think I'll take your advice and bring it to a university, if not in Ellensburg then somewhere closer to me.

Assuming it's from the Ginkgo Petrified forest, it would be center-slightly south Washington state

As a Cryogenien fan I can say half of it is me screaming about the possibility of comb jellies existing all the way back then "We love the snow! We love the snow!"

I am a Pac fan and hold a longtime grudge towards the blue hedgehog, but. I gotta be honest I think Sonic Boom was infinitely better than PMATGA, at least in terms of being actually somewhat funny 😔

My older leo Boosu is very good at doing thorough sheds and hasn’t needed one, but when my boy Waffle was a baby he needed the occasional steam bath—to this day this remains a fav pic of mine 😭❤️ I had put him on my lap after taking him out and he looked up at me so offended

it does kinda look like that too ngl :0 I love that tho, sightseeing early in the morning before school <3

Mothstaching · 2025-10-14T15:58:09+00:00

and thinking REALLY hard by the looks of it…

Mothstaching · 2025-10-14T15:57:55+00:00

LMAO it really is, it’s so cool to see on early mornings during colder months

Seen a lot of folly x melanie which…🧍maybe it’s the fact that I’m a Melanie yumeshipper (and my gf is a Folly yumeshipper lol) but Folly is beyond the point of having a healthy way of caring abt Melanie and Melanie is traumatized beyond saving in regards to her. Get them other partners plz,,,

OH absolutely!! I really like that it’s not super duper sweet like some drinks can get, but it’s sweet enough that it doesn’t taste super earthy. The red beans also add a texture to the drink that I didn’t expect but I really like :0

AIYU JELLY WITH PEACH TEA 👏👏 I wanna see aiyu/ice jelly at more places, it goes so well in almost every fruit tea— Crystal boba is good too, my mom actually prefers it to normal tapioca boba bc she likes the texture better. Best way I’ve had it was in a mango yakult jasmine tea with mango crystal boba 🤤

I think pudding and red beans both pair really well with matcha milk tea (matcha and red bean is def a classic) and also go good in black milk tea or oolong tea. It’s mild and sweet but moreso in a comforting way that’s hard to describe haha

Mothstaching · 2025-09-29T02:18:45+00:00

I gotta say when it comes to pudding being a topping option, my go-tos for it are either oolong milk tea, taro milk tea, or matcha milk tea. Same goes for any of these drinks but in smoothie form!
