My Own Green Man

It's a good thing that I did some pruning on this dwarf apple tree in our back yard today, as Phil had to spend some time in very close proximity to it shortly afterward. A panel of the fence between our neighbors' yard and ours had separated from the corner post several weeks ago, and today's mild weather was perfect for fence repair, as well as pruning.

I'm sure Phil appreciated the enhanced flexibility that yoga has brought him as he assumed some challenging positions while he mended the gap.

And here's another project he did yesterday, after we returned from the iFly trip. Be sure to click the link there to my other idea of how to use that IKEA cutie!

(Update on the Oso landslide in the New York Times here -- estimates still growing of how many people may be been in the area when the huge mudslide, carrying the equivalent of three million dump truck loads of earth, hit on Saturday morning.)
