Trees, and a She Shed??

Sure do appreciate all the nice comments on my last post. Thank you so much. Sorry I didn't get back to reply. 

and gosh, new followers! Thank you!

Oh friends, I've sat here and written a terribly boring post about the loss of our trees...

So, decided to back up and tell you, I've been standing and staring at the teeny tiny greenhouse...

The first cool days of fall I moved lots of plants inside. I loved it! But a few freezing nights took it's toll and now it's not so pretty. 

and might as well face it, two burning candles did not keep the place warm. 

So, I'm turning the teeny tiny greenhouse into a teeny tiny she shed. :) I've run a heavy duty drop cord from the shop and plugged in the little milk house heater; not to run continuously, but when I'm in there. This should be fun!!

I still want plants inside, and can a greenhouse be cozy? I will be hunting and searching and dragging a few thing from the house up to the greenhouse today.  Will keep you posted. :)

The big tree cutting company has cut the last standing tree, packed up and moved to another location. Well, they did leave one tall pine...

Carried my camera on our early morning walk with Eli yesterday. Wanted to show you just how wide open and bare it looks across from our house.

until now, we have never seen the rolling hills across the way. Can you see the tiny white dot back in the trees between the tall pine and center of the picture? Well, that's our neighbor's place. Looks far away now, but actually their driveway is just a few feet down from our driveway...

in fact, that's Poppy and Eli standing at their driveway and you can see their house from there. Crazy, isn't it? Another neighbor lives down the driveway behind Poppy.

We've had way too much rain lately. Friday, we got two inches then overnight had high winds and another quarter inch. We can now see the sky and the clouds, and this is how it looked late Friday afternoon...

The wind blew one of the panels out of my little greenhouse, but I was able to repair it.

Most of you know how afraid I am of storms...suppose now that I can see storm clouds brewing, I will be scared to death!

Oh, I almost forgot to explain about the one tall pine tree left standing...

When the tree company first arrived, Poppy told one of the men that his hunting spot was in those woods and that he had a tree stand in one of the pines. The man said, no worries, go wrap some flag tape around the tree trunk and we will not cut it. They gave Poppy that tree :) He was tickled to death. It was there that he killed the eight point buck. 

Hope you haven't signed off, for good!

Love,
Henny

PS...Bettina, in reply to your comment, the land owners plan to re-seed in pine trees. There are no plans to sell the property for a housing development...we are thankful for that.
