Have been to the city (Winnipeg, Manitoba) for a few days. Mushroom picking came to an abrupt halt for the time being. Was 8 days between our first pick and when we returned. Was very hot and dry during that time and everything shrivelled right up. Trip to the city may be leading towards a crazy busy fall for me. We have been mulling over the idea of renovating our kitchen for a long time. We have homemade cabinets that I built over about a 3 year period way back when we first built. We met with a custom cabinet builder yesterday and are just waiting for a quote. If it is a go I will be well occupied for a while starting late September dismantling and preparing for new. Both exciting and scary.

Today\'s photos:
1). Top of waterfalls
2). Dahlia in foreground is a bloom I have been anticipated all summer. Planted 3 and this is the only one that is doing anything and it is very slow
3). One of two identical pots on pillars at the entrance of the Japanese garden with burgundy bliss oxalis, Tiger Eye Gold Rudbeckia and Purple Millet
4). Coleus bunks finally starting to look decent
5). Tiny backyard pond in background
