Tree Update

It turns out that building a stone planter, even a small, non-load bearing one, is an enormous amount of work. It involved much use of a level, many bags of gravel, and a continuous back-ache for poor B, who did most of the hard work. But now all we have left to do is to plant some flowers around the base of the tree.

Also, the three windows at the far right of the house are to my bedroom, so the tree is what I see first thing every morning when I open the blinds for the day.
