Auspex Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 I think you have a driftwood pine knot, where a branch emerged from the trunk; the odd ridges are successive growth rings of the trunk.

I was thinking that as well but theres not a pine tree for miles !!!! not one pine in the entire area but I guess in this game like you said driftwood ...anything"s possible ...Thanks for the reply ...Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
