How to spend your Saturday morning:




That's how I spent my morning. (Recognize the bookmark,
Midlife Rookie?) Zoe and I made ourselves comfy on the deck. The weather has been incredible all week long. Even though it hasn't rained. It was ever so slightly chilly, which makes the tea feel even better than usual.







Zoe and I stared out at the empty field for a while. They cut the corn next to my house yesterday. Which means I need to buy rat poison today. As soon as the corn is gone, all the little beasties who lived in the field start looking for winter lodgings. Ah, the joys of country living.



After a while we were visited by this little guy. (I
think he's a guy.) He is evidently the one who has attempted to whitewash the deck with bird poo for the last few days. I advised him to see someone about his apparently extensive digestive issues. He just poo-poohed my suggestions.







Dang old, sorry, no-good, Bird Poo Bandit.

Oh, what a lovely morning!

Must go attempt to replicate, even though it's supposed to hit 91 degrees here today...

Glad you're feeling better.

Maybe the bird poo bandit will take payment to chase the rats away with poo bullets.

I really like these pictures Rach. Even the one of the poopy bird.

Maybe you can teach the dog to chage to poo bird away??

Cool, you still use it! Sounds like a luxurious morning - by my standards anyway. We didn't know that Cross country meets are run very early on Saturday mornings when manBoy got into it. I'm glad to support him, but I'll be glad when the season's over and we can sleep in a little.
