Caveat: Tree #745

A Daily Tree / Life in Alaska / My Photos

This tree supervised while I created a rectangle with 4×4’s. Now I need to dig little holes under the six pillars so I can make the rectangle level, and then I can mount my “studio” (storage tent) on the rectangle. This will be a much stronger anchor than just boards on the ground, as it had been anchored before.

Caveat: Tree #742

A Daily Tree / Banalities & Journaling / My Photos

This tree (well, it’s not so much a tree as a small piece of a tree that became detached from a pointy stick of arboreal provenance) spent three days embedded in my thumb, without my realizing it. But it started to hurt and I pulled it out, somewhat painfully. I have placed it next to a dime for scale.

Caveat: Tree #736

A Daily Tree / My Photos / Treehouse

This tree has been killed and processed, the better to serve as the flooring (deck) of my treehouse. Also, I bought some wood to frame out a new “foundation” for my storage tent, since it got unmounted by high winds last week.

I hooked up the heavy-duty trailer, and Art and I drove into town on a special trip so I could spend some of my hard-earned gift-store salary on materials for my treehouse project. It was a lot of work, and harder to drive the potholey road with a loaded trailer.

Caveat: Tree #735

A Daily Tree / My Photos

This tree has been eclipsed by a circlet of ice that I found frozen on the surface of a plastic bucket and placed upon a decorative pile of rocks.

Caveat: Tree #732

A Daily Tree / Banalities & Journaling / Life in Alaska / My Garden / My Photos

This tree was witness to the fact that my “studio” (a plastic storage tent structure) had been subjected to high winds and therefore dislodged from its moorings.
picture
I spent some time putting rocks and logs on parts of the “feet” to hold it in place temporarily, but will need to reengineer the base of it. Meanwhile, I got distracted sorting the dirt in my greenhouse, because I want to temporarily store some of the things from the studio up in the green house.

Caveat: Tree #725

A Daily Tree / My Photos

This tree stood guard over the newly re-wrapped RV. It was a lot of work getting that wet tarp back over it.

Caveat: Tree #724

A Daily Tree / Life in Alaska / My Photos

This tree happened to notice that the strong winds of the last few days had disrobed my RV. I put down some rocks to weight it down, and will try re-wrap the machine once this rainstorm dies down (in Spring?).

Caveat: Tree #721

A Daily Tree / My Photos

This tree is a “guest tree” from that past. I took this picture at the Veterans Administration Hospital in Portland, in June, 2018. That’s downtown Portland and the Williamette River in the background.
