Hall of Famer
A bit of background first. A few months ago, (five or six), there was a fire in the ravine behind my house. In exploring around the ravine today I was struck with the fact that nature always comes fighting back.
These palms were completely bare just a few months back, now there are regrowing.

Not everything survived though. This unlucky one was cut down. However new palms are growing up in its stead.

A couple of shots of the inside of the palm that was cut down. I have never seen the inside of a palm tree before.
