We are busy still trying to get ready for winter. A big almost dead tree is down now and ready to be cut up to to be fire wood next year. We didn't want it coming down on its own in a winter storm as on the right side of this tree was electric wires that go across from our place to the next home.
With the drought the roots would have been dried up as the tree was 3/4's dead. We have had that happen before.
The weather is cooler almost everywhere; time for some baking.
Comments welcome.

Wowsers ~ that a pretty big pine tree he's cutting there. I can see why you would want to take care of it before it comes down during a storm. When I saw the size of the stump, all I could think of was what big stepping stones it would make if they were cut off into 5 inch slabs and put into a garden as a walking path.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the muffin recipes ~ I can't wait to try them... especially the English Muffin one. I've never thought of making an English Muffin from scratch before :)
