Summer's Ebb

Only a week to go before Labor Day herald's the unofficial end of summer. Here in San Diego  our high seasonal temps have been short and sweet, to say the least. I know all too well that few, if any, people care to hear the travails of San Diego's weather. Who could blame them? No complaining allowed!

I visited a new-to-the-neighborhood emporium of all things vintage this week; Urban Barn. It is located in nearby Escondido, CA. Such a treasure trove of wonderful vintage finds from an eclectic mix of vendors. I wish each of them good fortune as they present their curated wares in their new abode.

As harvest season is upon us and the gardens now offer the picking of their bounties, I find it to be the perfect time to showcase  my creation of a one-of-a-kind seasonal tabletop tree.  It is from a series I  call "Trees of Life." Each one depicts a  life style or holiday theme. No two are alike! This one is titled, "The Good Earth." I hope that Ms. Buck is looking down with a smile on her face. Enjoy!
