Here and There (Home and a short drive):!

A few weeks ago there were TWO BLACK SQUIRRELS, one is rare in the yard, but two at the same time; then both in the same tree, the odds are great. BUT TWO tooooGether? eating that last of the corn.....


We made a pilgramage to Saks on the way to have dinner with friends in Cleveland Heights.

They live in a TUDOR style house, very flowered.
Somehow I did not get a picture from the street, but was fascinated by their TUDOR GARAGE - I never thought of what was behind a TUDOR House, beautiful beds of flowers and more.

Paul having a sweet stawberry, as its a TUDOR house, I figured I set him in the period (black / white'd the pic).

This was in one of the flower beds, fiendishly holy? perhaps a member of the Inquisition? The Inquisition of Cleveland Heights?

Back home. Paul got a Meyor Lemon tree for the holidays last winter (when we were buried in cold and snow). It had a lot of blossoms, that had beautiful California scents. We set it outside, and you could smell this single blossom a hundred feet away. Now there are small green fruits (3 of them survived on this small tree).

My brother cut branches under the fur tree, someplace I have a before picture. Now I can stand under it and take a picture upwards, this is the EMPIRE OF THE SQUIRRELS! no doubt there is a baron of the trees somwhere in the branches. AND Now I have a mole's eye view!



and to remind us that fall and winter are coming, baby pine cones are dangling from other ever greens....


Now, to find a an old FUR TREE PHOTO and stand at the same vantage point for a new one. (you can see the house from the street.... coming soon).
