Sunday catching up

Finished bagging the old insulation

1st load ready for the landfill

Gathered more pecans. More added after this pic, will have another 40 lbs. now

Bucket of "horseapples"

Cheaper than Bud Lite, and almost as good.

Grandma made pecan pie

I made pecan butter. Color is off in this picture, too green. It really looks like peanut butter.

we spent hours (maybe3-4?) Saturday raking/blowing/hauling leaves. Just from he front and side yards.

Next years garden patch (one of several?) with leaves applied. The hope is to kill the crab grass and improve the soil. 10'x35'~

A family friend came by and dropped off a flying squirrel he caught in his house. Squirrel was looking very rough, I didn't expect him to survive.

nearly lifeless

After recuperating for a few hours, he is no longer lifeless. He escaped his cage multiple times and raced around the living room. The blur on the back of the couch is him.

Trying to re-cage. Tricky because he is super fast and can bite very hard. Not hard enough to break the skin, but sharp and uncomfortable enough to make you let go when/if you catch him.


This doesn't look good...


Very cute. We were warned that he will make a commotion all night (nocturnal creature) and he did.
I suggested we name him "Rocky", but Nick chose "Buddy". Nick also observed that Buddy only has one nipple. I suggested that perhaps that was not a nipple and this may be a male flying squirrel.

Weird weather. 72° at 10:30 PM

...and 72° at 7 AM
