Eleven Leopold benches in two hours by 5 or 6 people. Emily donates cedar. Kari cuts into kits. Library buys carriage bolts. Mary pushes it to happen.
“At 3:30 a.m., with such dignity as I can muster of a July morning, I step from my cabin door, bearing in either hand my emblems of sovereignty, a coffee pot and notebook. I seat myself on a bench, facing the white wake of the morning star. I set the pot beside me. I extract a cup from my shirt front, hoping none will notice its informal mode of transport. I get out my watch, pour coffee, and lay notebook on knee”
—-Aldo Leopold, A Sand County Almanac.

I never noticed the delicate comfrey flowers before, and this fence post should be removed from the new garden design, but neither of us is willing to mess with the ecosystem on its top.
I'm super pleased with Vanessa's design for library stickers that shipped from Sweden faster than from Amazon.
