Shutting it Down

Bird house #2 got made the other night. We poured some wine, B showed me how to use his Dremel tool for woodpecker holes and edges (that's really neat!). We poured more wine and I went through twigs, leaves, dried plants, feathers, acorns and tiny branches I've been collecting . . . then we poured more wine and then we poured still more wine.

We have to pack up this morning. We've basically been living at this cabin now for over 2 months. I'm saying a silent 'good-bye' to my favorite Snaggle Tree across the meadow. He stands guard over all his fallen forest mates.

I'm going to miss all the pine cones I keep collecting. I set them on the deck and within a few days spiders have created new homes in them.

I'm going to miss all my favorite rotten logs. I check them out each day or so . . . looking for good light or just new critters who have recently customized them.

I'm definitely going to miss the sunsets like this one last night. ~N

I love the pictures and the comments so far. I will read more after I pour another glass of wine to join you in your libations. :-)
