Seriously.
This was Easter morning:





Even this little robin is looking up at the sky wondering whattup?

After watching this for a few minutes, I had to run and get my camera:
Tim shoveling a path for the chickens from their coop to our house foundation, their favorite hangout this month



Wally keeps everyone behind him until it's safe to go...



Wally lets all the hens pass, makes sure everyone arrives safely, then he brings up the rear.

Christmas cactus

lotta rain fell

creek running high










(Naples Community Park flooded, Penn Yan suffered major destruction...)

so behind on taking pictures this summer...
here is a random hodge podge of shots from my cell phone, taken during these last few weeks of July:

Sparky the dirtiest we've ever seen him, no idea what/where he got into:

overgrown cemetery up our road:



flowers for Cookie:

milkweed buds + fresh broccoli = delicious steamed with just a bit of butter

it's been an amazing season for wild berries




Tim found heirloom seeds for our Swiss chard this year - seems to be more colorful

mama deer + baby fawns everywhere lately
