Sunny morning on Serendipity. Sunny and very chilly, but with no sign of frost.

A has-been maple leaf, bleached of its former flaming glory, drifting down a rivulet and heading out to sea.

And a tree frog soaking up the sun while pretending to be a cedar log.

Today's major project consisted of planing 75 pine battens and then trimming both edges. While that may not seem like an awful lot, it does amount to 225 stoops, lifts, and bends. Some of us are feeling it. Also kind of boring.
