    LOL!

    Age spots and wrinkles?? Fat and short-haired? Shrivelled like a prune?

    Oh the variety of images you bring up, Dana!

    (Every old barn needs a good coat of paint .... Tammy Fay Baker) This is just a guess , Bugs and I talked about it today , I think when the new growth starts and the roots are short , if in s/h they get to dry . By the time they get to the moisture the wrinkling has started . Might work the same with bark . Gin
