They’re Heeeeeere! The trees, that is. So are Logan, Lacey and Shay, who’ve come up from Eugene to put 100(!) chestnut trees in the upper pasture, along with an assortment of apricot, peach and plum down by the house.

Morning starts with 25 cubic yards of alder chips

Blue is not at all sure he likes alder chips; he takes refuge with Lacey

Peaches and pluots and plums, oh my!

Photo op to show that I’m doing more than just standing around taking pictures

Logan demonstrates proper use of “Apricot Rock,” which, in coming years, will lie in the shade of a Montgomery apricot tree

Lacey and Shay looking all farmerly

Alas, poor Yorick, what big teeth you have! Er, had?
Great photos. The trees will be lovely in a few years.Sheila

Have thoroughly enjoyed following your travels and the photos – the farm especially (couldn’t agree with you more that that area of the country is amazing) – thanks much for taking time to do this!
Looking forward to the Friday night music making-
