We’ve been working on some new things. First, we have caged in part of the back garden to try to keep the quail out of the asparagus once and for all. (And this new structure, big enough for Brad to stand up inside, has stood up admirably to the 60+ mph winds here the last couple of weeks.)

And we built a new adobe cold frame for growing during the winter with its own little bench:

Best of all and not unrelated, for the first time in several years, we no longer have a pile of adobe bricks in front of our house!
