Day 356 - things dogs don't notice


Hard to tell from this picture, but what you don't see is a cedar tree.  (American Juniper.)  All of them up the hill are dying.  After a summer of excessive heat + drought, then a summer of near-excessive heat, they're dying off in droves.  The only ones still healthy are the ones on our land, which is mostly bottom land and has sticker soil and possibly a higher water table.

It's going to be awfully drab-looking when I'm jogging up the hill this winter.
