tree stumps
What chainsaws leave
Tree stumps are what remain after trees are cut down or broken off—the base of the trunk still rooted in the ground.
Stumps are obstacles for lawn mowers and hazards to trip over.
Removing them requires grinding or excavation.
The old tree stumps were covered in moss.
To be stumped is to be baffled, as if blocked by an immovable obstacle.
