Season Ending Day.

9-1-14 VERMONT: We did do Gile on Saturday. There has been a lot of trail work, and the climb is practically a flight of stairs now. The view from the top of the tower is expansive—from the Whites to the Greens. The tower was packed.

A blue heron has been here every day in spite of the human and dog activity. Bally, the Border Collie, chased him/her away early this morning, but he/she came back later and was here for more than an hour. Maggie caught him leaving yesterday.

Yesterday was drizzly and rainy all day, but we only got a tenth of an inch.

The guests all left this morning to take Maggie to Hampshire College to start her second year. She forgot her potted flower, but I planted it by the pond.

New blooms: chrysanthemum.


Great Blue Heron takes off with the neck in 'S' formation...

But comes back for more fish.

Chrysanthemum means September.

Phlox still going.
