Blackberry Winter

has arrived. It is cool enough this morning to need some heat in the house and a jacket outside. The wind sends the cold right to the bone. By most standards, this is not cold but yesterday we were sweating so I am calling today cold. The sun is shining. This is good.


Kubota King has a new toy, a fence auger.


His first post, not quite straight yet.


The top pasture we intend to fence.


May your day be wonderful and filled with sunshine.

Pond Progress Report

I am nearing the end. I have worked and potted and cleaned and gathered until I am exhausted. Remember I started this project last weekend. (You can go back and see beginning shots) I am maybe 95% done!

To the right, I have a dog walk so they may drink here, too.

Parrot Grass


The plants are a little thinner and better arranged.


The water lilies have done very well along with the bog bean. I still have a pile to pot but it is getting smaller. The gazing ball needs to be straighter.

Getting closer!

Almost Forgot Skywatch!!!!
















And a little Stormy Weather to go with it.

Water Garden Progress

Working with cedar wood cookies, but do not think it is the solution.
I shall collect more rocks, I think.
A chain sawed carved head by Dad will be one added little interest.

Flowers are being thinned and moved. I have a bazillion water lilies to pot.

Reflections...the trees and my thoughts.
