The snowpile in summer
So yesterday afternoon we headed down the path to the Bay, passing the snowpile the plow guy had assembled in the neighbors' yard.
The trees have their say
March 11, 2012
I suppose it’s possible to take trees for granted, especially when you have whole forests of them. Recently, though, the trees have been in the very forefront of our minds.

When you’re outdoors with animals, even days that look like this one feel . . . exhilarating. Something close to that anyway. Close enough to count […]
