View from the deck

These are the two red maples that stand across the driveway from the deck. As you might notice, I did not get all the leaves up last fall. I started, but then it got rainy. I'll finish up in the spring, I hope.

Denuded maples. It'll be nice when they leaf out again.

Today we're getting new shutters installed on five windows. One is a replacement, the others are for windows that haven't had shutters on them. The shutters, like others we have on the house, have solar powered batteries and roll down, or up, at the touch of a button without having to open the window. That's a nice feature to have during wet, cold, and/or windy weather.

  1. Those maples look like they’ve been around a while. Cool to have push-button shutters.

  2. I have read that leaving a few piles of leaves is good for wildlife. Gardens that are very tidy are not good for nature, apparently.
