June bug milestone



Our little girl is growing up.  Tonight she brought home her first mouse.  I am impressed with the size of the fuzzy rodent.  Happy Halloween!

October!

Change of seasons has occurred and the days are gray and cold here.  Luckily we have finished painting the house exterior.  Wow, what a transformation this place has undergone:
Before:

After:

We replaced two windows on the house and I used one of the old ones to build a cold-frame.



While I was constructing the cold-frame, Henry was enjoying a gift from Ryan.  Henry has had a great week.  Earlier he had a playmate, Blue, a crazy spaz dog who my neighbors were taking care of.  The two played by chasing, wrestling, and chewing each other. And that is how blue her eyes are, nearly white!

Our Ark is still afloat!

Today we have been experiencing a great rain.  Thunder serves as the bass beat with the tapping rain. The rain barrels have overflowed.  Now we will know how well our roofing job went...or not.

Poaching Post

I would love to take credit for these awesome pictures, but all I did was bring the photographer to my backyard.  Move over Vermont- Idaho has some prime peeping to do!
