A Pictoral Update

Life’s been a little rough around here, what with the Hubs breaking his leg so expertly and having his work situation equally precarious.
To draw you a picture, I’ve felt kind of like this:

(I’m the one on the boat)
Or maybe it’s not so dramatically dangerous as that. Maybe it’s more like this:

Coon Town

Guess who’s come to dinner? And breakfast and lunch…

Why it’s Procyon lotor, the common raccoon! And by “common,” we mean plentiferous.
He’s practically cute in a sneaky, mean, creepy kinda way. Looks at those little paws, ready to pick all the seeds out of the feeder (and possibly the eyes out of your dog).

My boyfriend’s back…

Isn’t he hot? The American Goldfinch (Spinus tristis).

just a warning, birds

It might be spring, and you might need a bath.

And you might even think you’re alone.

But you’d be wrong. And at our house, . . .

a day at the beach

You’ll be glad to know the Let the Dog in! family dashed to the beach this past weekend, and we got the pictures to prove it! And we had the “that’s boring!” grumblings of a 6 year old ahead of time, but that’s beside the point.
Who was happiest about this outing?
Her:

She was really diggin [...]
