Two oaks
Two kinds of oak trees grow here - Emory oaks and the smaller gray oaks.
It snows here too - got a few flurries this cold overcast morning.

A Theory of the State
States have a peculiar dual character. They are at the same time forms of institutionalized raiding or extortion, and utopian projects. The first certainly reflects the way states are actually experienced, by any communities that retain some degree of autonomy; the second however is how they tend to appear in the written record.
