This morning on the deck, a brief moment when the clouds reflected the long red rays and everything was suffused with a rosy glow. A deer snorted in the woods. The rattling call of a woodpecker. Crows -- they circle in the vicinity of where the snag used to be. I imagine they are looking for it. Still plenty of tall pines. I look at the tip of the sweet gum that shielded the septic field from a fall. I want to cut that tree down so the native persimmon - female! with fruit on it! So i am confident now! -- has light and the American plane tree deeper in the woods have light. I wonder how much that will set me back. I think i can schedule for when the leaves are off an i have time to chip the branches so nothing needs to be carted away.
I'm investing in my almost 20 year old bike to have special tires put on it for just using it as a stationary bike on a trainer. That was the after work task for yesterday: taking it to the shop. I was home while it was still light - -and cool autumnal air -- but did not have any spoons for work in the yard, So Christine encouraged me to sit on the deck and enjoy it.
