It’s my birthday!  We had a fancy party, and I made these cucumber boats.  So tasty.

The deck is stained!  And the fence is started – I am going to be so happy when it’s done.

Things I love:  trains, newly harvested fields, fall.

Things I don’t love:  sitting in traffic long enough to take 3 versions of this picture to choose from.

I built a stage for some people today, and on the last cut of the last board, I accidentally snagged the power cord of the circular saw I've been using on loan from Mary's parents. Sorry, George! I will get that fixed.

The first thing Elias Glasch thinks when he sees a fence is "Hey I bet I can get up on the roof from here but then have a really hard time getting down afterwards!"
