Tiled Bikeway

They finally finished the tiled bike path between Annie's Glen and Bidwell Park. The tilework looks wonderful. And while I was checking it out, I saw at least 20 bicyclists go through, so it certainly is useful. This is the approach from the Annie's Glen side.

This is Rick's piece, modeled on leaves from our oak.
Here's Titus's snail. I never did find Catherine's mole-pher, and couldn't remember anyone else's piece. Find yours and show me!
I went all the way through without seeing mine, and thought maybe it broke or just didn't get used. Then I finally found it, way on the outside. 
It's on the wall leading from Bidwell Park to Annie's Glen. 
Here's the Annie's Glen Welcome sign..
Ok, so what does this have to do with the farm? Well, it was an Amberglen project so it counts... But meanwhile, back at the farm... the guys are standing around drinking beer. What a surprise!
Maybe they were resting from their efforts, because Rick C. researched the spotting we were seeing on the potato leaves, and said it was possibly a nasty blight. We went to work and dug up all the potatoes, and disposed of the leaves. We did get a nice crop of baby new potatoes. Unfortunately, we also threw away a lot of potential potatoes, but better to sacrifice some harvest than get a blight that will also affect our tomatoes and peppers.
Cindy has been having so much fun with the Gnome Home. She made a lovely wreath.
And this wonderful broom
She looks pretty mischievous!
I couldn't remember if I posted pix of the teapot/kettle combination, but here's one just to be sure. Aren't they too cute?
