Hot Damn, We Finally Did It

 Cut the brush in late April or May, I can't remember. Tried to burn it in June, and it refused. Attempted it again last week...yay for Walt's old socks doused in diesel!
Hosed the tree down while burning, but a few leaves got scorched.

PuppyCat and Pinky Fernando

He visits every 5 or 6 weeks. Either she's infertile or he's impotent. Win-win, either way. They do make a cute couple, tho.
Can you see him?
Pretty sure he's feral
Taking time to stop and smell the clover.

He Was a Good Boy

Trying to Find Joy in It

Ken picked this one out. If it was in TX it would be a perennial. Can't pronounce its name.
The driveway seems spooky now, after being leafless for so long


Her chipmunk chasing is no longer cute. She's bad.
These wildflowers line the roads and fill the fields. I dug a bunch up from the neighbor's land last year, hoping they'll spread across the yard.



Wild columbine and a purple sage I bought for a dollar in the sickly section at Lowe's last year.
The Evil One lost her skull collar, has to make do with a silly pink one from the dollar store
