Beautiful property, Krafty. I like the landscaping because it really fits your environment. Are the large stones in front functional. They appear to have something to do with moving water away from the house.
It fell yesterday afternoon. I'd attached a line that coaxed it into falling safely. Rocky, yes the downspouts at both ends of the house feed into the rocks then drain down the hill to the left of the house.

Incidentally, I have often wondered if Al Kaline's (the former Detroit Tiger) father had a sense of humor when he named him.
Too bad it wasn't until late in his career that he moved from the outfield to play first BASE. (See what I did there?)
We had a nice thunderstorm move through yesterday evening around 7PM. Some spots got hail. We lucked out and had only a gentle rain for a change.

wow..was that your pic?
No, the photographer added their signature in the lower right area of the photo.
Mezcal?About 6 weeks ago our Agave started sprouting a bloom. My understanding is they bloom once and die and that this one was planted somewhere around 2003, if the neighbors memories are correct. It was standing straight until 3 days ago when it started listing slightly away, luckily, from the house. We're expecting it to get windy this afternoon and at the rate it's leaning I don't expect it to stand for much longer. I tied a rope to it to hopefully guide it away from the flag pole and driveway when it does go. Absolutely no clue how much it weighs but the base of the stalk is about 8" across and feels like solid wood. I'm estimating somewhere between 25 and 30 feet tall. The flag pole is 14' tall for reference. News at 11:00.....
