Today's cover shot: A very ANGRY sea on the southern Oregon Coast....

Question of the day: If a man goes into the deepest forest and talks to himself where there are no women around who can hear.... is he still WRONG? Well DUH!!!

Wednesday! Gotta love it! Have a Happy Hump Day!

We've got another beautiful fall day going for us in the swamp today. Not real warm but sunny anyway.

My crews are still cleaning up the debris but they're getting close to wrapping it up. Burning has been shut down all week due to an inversion layer that would trap the smoke. The last thing we need is to cause people health problems so burning can wait. In the meanwhile, the debris is all piled up and that will help it dry so it will burn with less smoke when the time comes. There's always a plus side! And, I'm under no pressure to get it done. Planting by January and I'm good! I think this will be the last property I buy and reclaim. I'm planting trees that I won't be around to see grow up. ☺

Mr Ed, glad your cleaning and re-planting project is going so well. This gorgeous weather should hold out for the rest of the month and maybe a bit beyond. It's so nice to be able to get out and get all the yard work done for winter without getting soaked in the process. Makes cleaning up leaves so much easier too.

That is a great shot of the ocean - I love how you captured the color in that wave!

Carol - Boiler Bay is great for "action" wave pics. The shape of the shoreline produces fabulous wave action.... some days more than others depending on the tide.

I've gotten all my fall cleanup done at mi casa. I dead-headed all the stuff that needed it, raked all the downed leaves, and pulled out or cut off the plants that required that. My tomatoes were still producing but they've been flirting with frost a couple of times so it was time for them to go. I'm going to have to go back and do a final rake on the leaves to get the last of them. They all just can't get together and hit the ground at the same time. All this cleanup has made a giant addition to my compost piles. I've got about 20 yards piled up but it will cook down to about five yards by next summer. I'd be totally screwed if I didn't have the tractors!
