Hanging from a Tree

When I came home from shopping I saw the funniest sight out my dinning room window. This little squirrel was busy stealing food from the bird feeder because the other squirrel wouldn't let her near the squirrel feeder. If you look carefully, you can see her head off to the left side. They can be quite voracious eaters.

Gardening

This past week has been Spring Break. I used part of my time to reclaim my patio from the weeds and start a garden. Pulling out the weeds is an ongoing process. The biggest problem has been what to replace them with so they don't come back. I've decided to use cocoa shells. It has a nice chocolate smell and looks good too.



I've planted carrots, radishes, peas, and a tomote in the first bed. There are strawberries and a green pepper in the second bed.

Springtime

Tulips and spring! Isn't this lovely?

I was playing with my new digital camera when I took this. They are such fun to watch. The sound in the background is the wind blowing.
