Mr S and his brother cut up the apple tree on Monday afternoon, just in time to haul it to the front curb for these guys.




The crew from Lafayette County was making the rounds with their chipper. This was a huge help, as the brush (which extended many feet past what you can see here) would have taken 4-5 trips to the dump to dispose of. We'll plant a new tree come spring.

I spent yesterday afternoon making a hat.



The wig stand is decidedly smaller than my head. so I get a somewhat smoother fit. Still, if I do this again I may do one less pattern repeat vertically.
