Looking out my kitchen window.

This raspberry bush was only planted this summer, but is still giving me delicious berries.

A lovely mural of a hiker admiring a sunset and the mountain laurel on the Skyline Drive at Vibressa Brewery, where we held our tree warden meeting tonight.

Church Cat, or CC, as I call her. A friend feeds this stray in town every day, but is on vacation for a few days, so I was happy to step in. And so was CC. Wet and dry food, plus some treats for dessert.

I locked these 2 young deers in the cemetery tonight. They’ll be safe in there and can shelter under the big trees.

These metal shades generated a lot of interest on the garden tour. Original to the house, they still operate perfectly and keep a lot of the midday sun from heating the house interior.

The compass plants are busy with bees. There’s so many of them!
