One or both of the dogs sleep on the bed with Barb…unless she’s out of town. Then it’s the couch.

Fox sightings becoming regular thing
The three foxes that guard our road seem to have gotten comfortable around humans. When we do get too close they dash into one of several culverts.
Foxes
Spotted this little critter coming home tonight. He/she and two of his/her pals were eyeing the cat you can see in the background. We’ve seen a single fox a few times but this was our first sighting of three. Update: A neighbor took the photo below.

Barb, pups and Steve
Barb and members of the garden club to which she belongs have been getting our (Barb’s) yard ready for the annual garden tour. The local club came out for a pre-tour and one of the members captured this bit of Americana.

Like the planets, this moves very slowly — even in strong wind — and is most hypnotic.
Fresh coat of stain for the house
Bob is smiling because he spent the last month putting a fresh coat of stain on our house and he’s working on the invoice. Bob does really nice work but he’s not cheap (who wants a cheap paint job?!). I highly recommend him.
Apple Photos Slideshow
Our little bit of heaven is going to be on the local garden tour this year and Barb has been working hard to make it look nice. The one-minute video above was created with Apple Photos slideshow tool. For some reason I keep forgetting about this wonderful tool.
Washing the house before staining
This is Bob. Bob and his boys have been repairing the cedar siding (photos) on our 30 year-old-home. The woodpeckers have been eating us up! He’s washing off decades of grime before putting on fresh stain.
He’s about 30 feet up on a wet, slanted roof. Refuses to use a safety harness because it slows him down. I can’t watch.
