We're moving the potato patch back where it was a few years ago- crop rotation! I've been wanting to plow it since March. It's finally drying up a little this week. Hopefully the grass and weeds die off quickly.

When I make cheese crackers, my favorite cheese is the one on the left in the black package, "vintage". It's a sharp, dry cheddar.

It keeps raining so some parts of the yard aren't getting mowed.

The strawberries have blooms. We just have to keep them covered if it's going to frost and we'll have strawberries soon.

My dentist office is in an old house. The leaves on the trees are much farther along than at my house.

The other morning I saw something hop by the house, but it was black and it was still dark outside. Today I saw it again- an almost all black skunk. It doesn't have the white stripes on it's back, just a bit of white on it's head and a little on it's tail.

We stopped at an antique store. I thought this is interesting. I like all the bins.

Pretty much every time I look out to the back yard, I see a bunny. Or two.

I've got most of my plants started.

I drove to the next town and noticed the maple trees there had full leaves. Mine are still small. It's like we're in a different climate just a few miles away.
