Better go back and get it because someone else is sure to see how gorgeous it is!


I don't know, I've never killed an animal (well there are those woodchucks and the raccoon that killed my chickens) but plants? They best look out!


Given the increase in Covid cases and deaths I'm not sure that is a good idea.

FIL in the skilled nursing facility tested positive Monday. DW, DD1 and her BF were with him Sunday. They were masked as required so hopefully safe. MIL just called, she now tests positive. She goes to see him at least twice daily and also masks though they do sometimes eat dinner together. All are vaxxed and boosted so hopefully unlikely to get hospitalized but FIL is 97 with Parkinson's, MIL is 89, DW has been on immune suppressing drugs for over 20 years. Plenty to be concerned about.

I hope they recover well!

Well found the darn belt for the yard tractor ..
They will have it at 4 today pick it up but another 35 mile trip 1 way .. Cost of living in the sticks.

Yup! Everything is 10 miles away, or more, and mostly more. Gas station? 10 miles. Full grocery store, hardware, TSC? 12. Home Depot/Menards? 25 or 30.

Peace and quiet? Right out my front door. That's why we live out here.

Given the price of gas they could probably mail it to you cheaper in a flat rate box.

Forgot to mention: DD2 reminded me that the first stop to visiting FIL is going to MIL's place and working on her current jigsaw puzzle with her. Sans mask and anything resembling social distancing.

But, hopefully, since MIL tested negative yesterday and the day before, she wasn't "sharing" as early as Sunday

I was clearing the storage on the run cam and thought this one was hilarious. He's 4 years old and still almost face planted!

We get 34 miles to the gallon so not too horrible

Yes and yes. I love living rural did that reason.

Good morning Cafe. Coffee is ready.

It's going to shower and drizzle most of the day and I really need to mow the lawn again.
