Gaelen and Nicole (with some help from their friends) are putting up a new barn. It's on the highest spot they could find because, you know, the old barn (it was quite old) was lost in the flood. 

This one is smaller, but so beautiful.
 

De-fence! De-fence!

The rebuilding of the flood-ravaged Hannah Branch Road community garden continues with a new deer fence. We'll add hardware cloth at the bottom to make it a rabbit fence as well. 

In case you were wondering why the Blue Ridge Parkway is closed

Here is but one reason.
