Japanese Maple

<p>Thoroughly enjoyed a gorgeous day. Moving some plants around became an archaeological dig. We uncovered a nicely poured slab at the base of the cabin stairs, complete with a concave drain that is aimed straight at a thirsty Hydrangea. The Japanese Maple seems to be happier now that it&#8217;s gotten more light for a couple of seasons. Next time we&#8217;ll know for sure, thanks to my coverall-clad spouse providing scale in this photo.<br />

<p>This is a tragic event for Athenians, musicians and guests who have enjoyed countless shows at this iconic venue. This paints my memory of watching <em>Apocalypse Now</em> in the balcony a more surreal color. Or the many times the place felt like it was on fire from all the folks packed in to see a great show.</p>
<p>Much of downtown is without power this morning as a precaution.</p>
