Our reforestation project is starting to look as if progress is being made. We are steadily removing invasive plants from our one acre "forest lot"(in the background) and thinning the edge of our "house lot" . Our plan of being able to see into the forest lot is starting to shape up. When we bought the house the former owners had screened (with plants) this area because they did not own the adjacent lot. It has taken 4 to 5 years to get this far. When I think about that too much it hits me just how much work it has been! We are getting so much satisfaction from the progress now it all seems worth it.

Had a pot luck party for my birthday last Sunday. A new acquaintance Linda bought this carved water melon that she had created. If I ever get invited to a potluck at her house I will probably lie awake for many nights before , trying to think of something creative to take.
