Thank You, Mr. Woodchuck

Phenomenal nut and seed crop this year. Unprecedented in my memory

For unplugging the electric fencer so we could spend the whole day walking and repairing fence. It was a beautiful day.....but.....I hadn't planned on spending it lugging a bucket full of fencing tools all the way around the field.

I thought we only had pale touch-me-not, but look, orange

At least only heifer got out......when I saw her on the lawn this morning I knew the day was going to take an unplanned direction.

Liz 'n' Jade are vacationing at Peck's this week and already started out with a little direction change as well. The cabin they rented was about wrecked by last week's catastrophic storms and nobody called. At this point they are getting put into a different cabin...smaller....less isolated...may not have a stove and nights are getting real cold.

Been complaining about no monarchs this fall, but we found one

However, you CAN drive to it, which would be a massive plus in my book...

Looking forward to lots of pics and stories when they come home next week.

 

Help, all you smart folks, what berry is this?

And, as always I lugged the camera along with the bucket of staples, pliers and insulators, so here are some pics.
