Shed Framework

It is off and running!! Like a herd of turtles..... Keith and Tim decided that the lawn tractor and the mowers need a place to rest... and the cistern and pump need a "house" before winter.... They got this far and then today they decided to take it apart and lower it 3"!! It will be really nice when (and if LOL) it gets done!!

We had a couple of days of rain - about a week of cloud cover (normal in Coos County!) and yesterday afternoon the sun came out beautifully and it is out this morning already!! We will definately enjoy the sun while it is here!

I pulled a couple of carrots and picked a few cherry tomatoes this morning - I've been cutting lettuce for a couple of weeks now - and it is showing no signs of going away.... Hopefully it will last until some of the big tomatoes get ripe - some huge ones on the vines but still really, really green! Come on sunshine - ripen those babies!!!

Not much else going on - just enjoying each day as they come...

Each morning I go out back and check out the roses and the trees (we have some new fruit trees just planted) to see how much damage our nocturnal visitors have done... Since we live within the City limits these beautiful creatures are protected and they seem to know it~~

So they don't even wait until the cover of dark!! I took these from my front yard after driving by them, parking the car, going in the house to get the camera, and walking to the edge of the yard! They didn't move until the Baby squealed with delight ~ after he finally noticed them. LOL
