Boy, it's cold (by our standards) today! One can really feel the snow on the mountains, and there's a breeze to boot. Before leaving for a poetry and lunch get-together, Miyoko encouraged me not to do any pruning today, and I think I will be an obedient husband for once. Cloudy--no shadows here. Photo of tulip tree made and will be coming when the computer is not using so much of its processing power as it is at the moment.
Thanks for the pointer to the Baldwin apple ladders, listener--it seems that they are not available hereabouts, but from the photos on the Internet I can see how they are made, and expect I could do it well and easily enough (this summer). I had checked Craigslist for this area, but no luck.

Howard Dean backs Grossman for Mass. governor
ReplyDeleteWell, there's that decision taken care of. *grin*
DeleteA bit of rain sounds perfect, Alan. Are you in drought where you are or is that more to your south?
ReplyDeleteWe are smack in the middle of it.

P.S.: Inspired by the lead picture, I watched "Groundhog Day." Yes, that was a pretty good movie.
