there is the Fence.   The need.  the heartbreak.   Their trail ran up, diagonal,  through Campsite B.,  off into the hinterland.  It's blocked now.  They go up,  along the new fence and then over,  their Beauty Full path no longer.

    The trials and rewards of this history
    and more, much more to come:
    SUPER MOON-hen the Snow Moon becomes officially full on Tuesday Feb.19 at 10:53 a.m. EST (1553 GMT), it will be about six hours past perigee and will be at its closest at 4:07 a.m. EST (0907 GMT). Although it’s officially “super” on the 19th, it will still look pretty full (and super!) to the casual observer the night before and after. To figure out when it will rise and set from your location go to the site: https://www.space.com/34515-supermoon-guide.html

    Your world, green, mossy, compost alive. My world, at 4 am icy cold but clear, now snow mounding on ground,compost buried under several inches. On Sunday, we drove to Cuba, Regina to check out snow, smattering on the ground, not much, no drifts but as we drove back, skies were unbelievable, clouds dark, puffy as if they were holding onto the snow, just waiting to burst open with a tumble of snow.
    I went out just now, and noticed that pear trees have buds for blossoming and a stray rainbow Swiss chard plant, under our make shift little canopy greenhouse, hangs on as do some of our herbs- greens on white, food on ice…

    no, it’s around the periphery of all that you see in the
    pics. You can see the white tops of the T posts and then
    depending on enlarging, the fencing, livestock fence.
    There will be two gates…one at the top leading to
    campsite C…in first pic you see a Goat passing that
    spot. Just the fencing is hooked now. No gate yet.
    and then down, the opposite side, is the drive/road
    side…a large gate there, so when the Someday house
    gets going again, materials can be brought in. Julian will paint the white tops of the metal posts for me so it’s less noticable. Fencing bothers me. But no plants bothers me more

    Now I see the white post tops–I was looking elsewhere. We have no fences here. But strangers walk up from the woods into our yard thinking it’s okay. The neighbor doctor and lawyer tell them to walk into our property– so we think about fencing.
