We started hearing their distinctive jingling a few weeks back. Yesterday, we had our first breakfast out on the back deck. "There's one just by your head," said the Brick -- not because I was sweet (ahem), but my rosebush from Mother's Day was nearby on the table.
Awwwww....is this the same female who enjoyed hanging out with us last year during meals? She seemed curious, more than anything. "Hmmm... that pie looks delicious. It's made with 'flower,' right?" (Sorry, couldn't resist.)
I am happy to report that our last fever was Thursday night. We got needed groceries Saturday -- town was full of tourists on holiday, and people celebrating high school graduations. We made it home without incident, but were exhausted. We also managed to clean out the truck... the storage trailer will wait. Still regaining strength.

Dilbert's creator has the same cancer as President Biden. And not much longer to live, he predicts. I very much admire this person, though I disagree with him some, too.
Chaos in the fine art auction world -- sounds like a good time to buy!

Speaking of -- Jake Tapper comes clean. Sort of.
'Don't worry about the stock market -- check this, instead.' Well, yes...and no. (From Millenial Revolution)
Here are ten reasons I am very, very leery of Alexa.
And ten people who didn't know when to shut up -- and paid for it dearly. This is incredible.
And finally -- 'Brick by Brick' by Drew and Ellie Holcomb. (I wonder why I posted this? :)
