We have encountered this large furry beast on our walks before and he was always very skittish. This last weekend that all changed. He finally let us get close and we were able to pet him. He was so happy to see us that we were showered with slobbery kisses and an invitation to rub his belly. This makes our walks even sweeter in anticipation of seeing our newest friend.
When Lucy and I are out on our walks we often encounter critters in the roadway. A couple of nights ago we came across this frog. At first I thought it was dead. Thankfully, that was not the case. I quickly snapped his picture and then escorted him off the road.
The other day we had a nice gentle rain shower. I went to let Miss Lucy in and noticed two rain soaked bunnies munching on some clover. Apparently bunnies don’t even tempt Lucy out in the rain.
Our garden is doing so well. I am almost don’t want to talk about it, afraid I might jinx it.
Banana pepper…we also have some jalapeno and bell peppers.
Cucumbers are just starting….can’t wait for them so I can try my hand at making pickles.
Butternut squash….
Spaghetti squash….this one took me by surprise. All the other squash are still pretty small and then there is this one. Very exciting.
I’m not sure if this is the same kitty that Lucy chased through the neighbors pasture about a month ago, but as you can see she was very very leery of us as we were walking by.
Lucy got too close to this snapping turtle when it lunged at her and bit/grazed her nose. It wasn’t bad….just broke the skin and bled a little bit. Hopefully she will think twice before going in to sniff a turtle in the future.
Do you ever look at objects and see things within that object? I do….all the time.

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sailaway from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” ~ Mark Twain
