Fall rains have helped to replenish the moisture in the soil, yet the ground is very dry. The one tree on the grounds of The Little House is a large spruce. To prepare it for winter I laid a garden hose running fully open at it's base for three hours. It needed a good drink before freeze-up. The water from the hose only ran three feet before being absorbed by the soil. The ground is so dry the water didn't even puddle. Perhaps another drink is in order before the ground freezes. It is a beautiful tree which always accommodates nesting birds and deserves preservation. The wren nesting house that I received for my birthday hangs from it. Come the house little birdies!
Takk for alt,

Why do I find this funny?
