The Circus Is In Conifer

Winter                                                  Settling Moon

The fireplace and the entire mantel, including side cabinets is visible. This is progress. We can turn the he and she chairs toward the fireplace, then begin the seasoning of the refractory glass.

Kate continues putting together the Swedish shelves, banging and whacking. Leaves the dogs anxious. Gertie, our German shorthair, stuck by my side as I emptied boxes. At one point I got down on the floor to access a drawer. She scooted forward and put her paw on my leg.

The circus has two tents dismantled, folded, put on the train and now deployed in Colorado.  The roustabouts have laid down stakes, got out pulleys and are hoisting the heavy canvas. The circus is in Conifer.
