Is it Walter? Maybe. Back from the dead and downstream. We spotted this from the path by the river.
Probably 4 feet long.

First, a visit to the sycamore. It is more than twice her height now.
Then a walk by the river with moonshine.
Grandpa loves this.

A rare event. That’s what happens when it hits 4 degrees in Virginia. And no, we did not let Maybe venture out.

Never fear! We can engage the Canadian tech.

During the time of the dog days, this is what we see.
Lots of trees down this summer due to chaotic weather (weeks of drought followed by an intense several day tropical storm).
