Beck + headphones + dancing feet = smiling dizzy

last morning in Maine

Wake up call

Life has a very simple plot: first you're here and then you're not.

at Grimes Glen with my mom

Some of the hosta blossoms survived the deer. Summer is going too stinkin' fast.

carry on regardless

(views out the barn windows...)






I have admired the grace of this interloper making her way around our yard for the last two mornings until I discovered she ate all the buds off my lillies and 1/2 the hostas!!!

Cool for Ca-at-at-ats

hangin' with the gang

in her favorite spot under the lilacs






All done: perky & refreshed.

beginning the chicken tunnel project

moving the coop again...

After a few hot sunny days we realized the coop's location within the fenced garden didn't provide much shade for the hens, except sitting right under the coop. So we moved it over to a spot within the shade of the cherry tree next to our lawnmower shed.
