East Foothills to Home

Back up to the east foothills today and returned at sunset as it bounced off clouds, tin roofs and horse backs. Gathered up our Scotch Pine today from the nursery and we'll plant it tomorrow. We dug the old little spruce out and  will make a bigger hole. Garden clean-up in earnest as it's been neglected for more fun things than raking pine needles and dead-heading....oh yeah! There's a group coming to the studio on Saturday; so some serious raking must be done since they've lifted the burning ban. Ironic....hated the smoke in august and now I want to burn my pine needle piles. Is there no sense to this woman???
