Haven't posted for awhile, and tons has happened. And I don't know how to make a layout cooperate, so just randomly on here. We built a new storage room in the corner of the garage, it will serve us well. Not to get it stocked up. We traded the subaru for a hyandi, good mileage and paid for. We burned our field, and I rediscovered ant beds, these are huge. I used to love to "study" ant beds when I was a kid. When I was in third grade, our class was earning money to buy a pair of guinea pigs (from my brother Kendall) and mom gave me the job of walking to the store for a few groceries. On the way home, I stopped to "study" an ant bed for an extended period of time, and when I got home, I almost didn't get paid. I had looped the grocery sack over my arm and ended up smashing the middle flat of a loaf of WONDER BREAD. Wonder bread was a rarity at our home, it was a great loss. Anyway, my "study" of ant hills goes way back. If you look closely, one ant had a piece of grass three times longer than he was in his mouth, that always amazes me.
Having a nice spring and glad for some warm days after a few weeks of much needed rain. The robins love our yard, and the worms. Tried to get a pix of the cats, not very photogenic. Now next week we are headed to Provo to see our baby graduate from BYU!

Love the pics! I think the kitties are cute - from a distance, though, not sure we want any yet... I remember your ant study stories, but not that one and we couldn't really make out the ants in the picture. We're also divided on the pile under the tree - did ants make that pile? Nice car by the way!
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice post! I love all the pictures! I didn't know you had a soft spot for ants, of all things. The kittens have grown up, and the storage room looks great. :) love you and can't wait to see ya!
ReplyDeleteI assume the ants made the pile, maybe the elk and deer and gophers help them at nite, it gets pretty crazy out here after dark. - if you can tell me how to, I will put a neon arrow on the ant with the stick in the mouth.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see you Val!
