I've never looked close, including yesterday, to see if there were any telltale leaves still hanging on (It was an Oak...why look...").
I'll check it out today and let you know, 'cause I'm really curious. I've cut some Oak, and this stuff is really light compared to it, or maybe I was just stronger than I realized...

Oak usually smells like cow manure when it is freshly cut-does this smell?
