Finally

 This is the first time we have witnessed the Aurora Borealis in the Crick.

An eclipse AND the Northern Lights--what next?

Eaves

 In spite of the rain--mere drizzle--I've almost finished the eaves on the east side. I used some bits of leftover oak faced half-inch ply. After this, just the final window (under Tyvek) and then on to the north face, which has no openings at all...

Seeing Is Believing

 Two--that's right!--TWO windows in place. The second one went a lot faster. Now I have to make the third, a slightly smaller pane which will requite a little creativity.

Glassy

 And now...a window! Ironically, what is reflected in the glass is the OLD potting shed.

Fire!

 The date of the first fire varies widely. For the woodstove, it's usually in October. Note this year. No sir. Fortunately I did the chimney earlier in the month, and gave the woodstove itself a thorough emptying out.

Still Shedding

Painfully filling in the shingles on the front of the garden shed. 


 Only about a dozen could be added whole; all the rest are cut to fit. Still, I should be onto the east side by the weekend.
