Brulle River as seen from Judge CR Magney State park, just East of Devil's Kettle.


Sorry about the lapse. Besides organizing the photos from our trip to the North Shore, I've also been busy with a new job, which in this economy is a positive thing.

First snow today! Just flurries, which melt on contact as temps are holding in the 40's and the ground is still warm. All the flowers are gone, as are the tropical plants in my pond garden; inside for the year. Fish will be coming in soon.

Planning to move the sumac tree today. Will be building a small rain garden down at the edge of the property line.

And the Bellflower bloomed on.
Amazing to see the same Bellflowers from late Spring still blooming as the Joe Pye Weed turns to balls of fluff and the Purple Coneflower become prickly black balls of seed. Very cold lately, with highs in the low 60s and lows in the 30s.
