Pick-up sticks...





Two more trucks of doug fir left yesterday.
Watching this self-loader handle the logs reminds me of a game of pick-up sticks.
A couple more loads still to come out.

A little color in the rock garden
A quince blossom... someday to be a real quince.

Concoction to combat apple maggot.
1 cup vinegar
1 cup sugar
2 banana peels
water

A friend puts this out on apple trees right after blossom. 
She says it makes a huge difference with her apples. 
Certainly cheaper and friendlier than so many sprays.
We'll see how the apples look in the fall.

Turtle Update:  There are at least two of them.
