When a tree burns and has a layer of charcoal it will not rot. The logs were stacked behind the motor home and the Carpenter ants were doing their thing so being on a major yard clean up this summer...

ReplyDeleteHi Rob
ReplyDeleteThat sure does bring back memories for me having grown up in northern BC and fighting on some of the fire crews there. A job I wouldn't want again in a million years.. just thinking of it I imagine that smoke smell in my nose still! Scary!!!
Hello, I am visiting from masterpiece Monday. I went fishing in Campbell River years and years ago. It is a lot of fun. Your dahlias are fabulous. Love the apples too.
ReplyDeleteLove old wood. Very nice photos, especially the dogs.
ReplyDeleteWow, I picked blueberries but not 20lbs. Love the pretty flowers and the cute puppy dogs. Lovely photos, enjoy your week ahead1

ReplyDeleteoh my I love the idea of an organic fly spray...recipe???
ReplyDeleteLove all your flowers!
The blueberries have been fabulous this year. Our bushes were loaded. My husband picked the last of them to accompany his granola this morning before work. But we have lots in the freezer to take us through the winter.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos of life in your corner.
Your flowers are looking wonderful and your garden plentiful. I am impressed with the amount of blueberries you picked but there should be some good blueberry pancakes in the near future. Valerie
