Ohio State returns

As in: Plants

It turns out the tree in our backyard is an Ohio Buckeye tree. I guess my choice of University of Florida over Ohio State finally returns to haunt me. I guess if I'd chosen Ohio State, we'd find a gator nest, eh?

I also learned that the Ohio Buckeye tree is also called the American Buckeye, the Fetid Buckeye, and the Stinking Buckeye because its leaves and bark smell really bad if you mash 'em up. I know I'll be doing that this fall. :)
