Rag blanket for Jen and Cory
Wanted to make something, 'baby' for Jen and Cory's little one so we put together a rag blanket this week. Everyone needs something 'baby' to set out while we await the new arrival. Done with the first washing - sure makes a mess! Love the colors of these pieces though. Not sure if I'll mail it or hand deliver it when you come for Thanksgiving, humm. I'll let you know.

Sunday morning sunrise
This morning not too long before leaving for meetings this could be seen from our bedroom window so I quickly ran for the camera, some warm slippers and tried to capture the moment for all to enjoy. Breathtaking!

Guess???
Yep...that's muddy water being pumped out AGAIN from yet another hard rain. Love the rain just dread the work that follows until we have the cement poured. It takes a very long time but how can I complain when the atmosphere of the surrounding woods are so completley serene. I love to hear the squirrels running through the leaves, birds singing and frogs chirping. Plus the sound of the water running out the back sounds like a babbling brook as it cascades over the many many rocks.
Basement floor that took an entire day to pump out little by little. It's so shallow we have to use a small pump for this job. Around the outside we use the BIG pump.
I discovered a nest of tadpole eggs on the surface of one of the larger pools of water. If you enlarge the photo you can see tiny tails emerging already. I like how it's in the shadow of the leafy bush overhead.
These little salamanders (I'm assuming that's what it is) are on the run all over the place. One never visits the lot that you don't see them scurrying for cover. When you enlarge the photo you can see the magnificent detail on him. Incredible.

More house pictures...
Joe makes it look so easy to walk on one thin board high up in the air...not me certainly.
Wasn't sure I could do the whole scaffolding thing up in the air, but I managed - as long as I could grab hold of something most of the time.
Views from about main floor level towards the back yard.
From the front you can tell something is actually happening more all the time.

Well it's taken some time...obviously Marley turns 2 on Monday! Oh well. It's the thought that counts right. Made with love!
