It snowed in Maple Grove, MN this last Saturday 11/19. Really nice that the snow held off this year because it gave me a chance to finish some outdoor projects. Two bigger projects were sanding and sealing our deck and building a large firewood rack. There were also many smaller projects: trimming the bushes, staking our Honey Crisp apple tree, driveway sealed and cracks filled and many other small outdoor projects. I’m also excited to report that I changed the transmission fluid on my car by myself; first time ever. The car also got a nice coat of wax, so it should be all ready for the winter.
I took a few photos with my film APS camera the last two months. Most of them were family photos, but I have a few to show below.
This photo is looking down the hiking and horse path in the northern section of Elm Creek Park Reserve, not too far east from the parking on French Lake Road.

My Honey Crisp apple tree. Planted summer 2010. Early in the year it was full of apples on all the small branches and all the way up to the very top. I ended up cutting off all but four of the apples so it wouldn’t be overloaded.
Made the pictures a little wider this time to fill the entire space. Now to mess with the blog software to make the space even bigger.
