We start working on the walls of my studio!

Here is a very lucky toad that managed to avoid death today. The poor thing got wedged between the tines of my pitchfork while I was moving manure. I thought it was a goner. What the heck was it doing in the manure pile?! I wonder what the ducks would have done with it?
Signs of Fall: Loons are congregating along the coast, geese are flocking in the fields.
Our girl relaxing in the shade. She's looking quite gray these days.
Let's hope I have the good fortune to live long enough to see my trees grow to maturity. I'm putting in various maples, crabapples, pines, Arbutus (madrone and strawberry tree), and Pacific wax myrtle. Also have a hairy manzanita and Parney's cotoneaster to plant somewhere. Sales are starting this week and I'll be buying more!

 |
| Shore pines to be planted on the east side. |
 |
| Wax myrtle and Arbutus unedo to screen the south side. |
 |
| Small vine maple on west side. |
 |
