How beautiful!
Lmao!!! I would have to agree with you there... though I’m positive that we would have different victims in mind...
This brings to mind the scene in The Kitchen movie with Melissa McCarthy and Tiffany Haddish... where Ruby pushes the Mob mom down the stairs.... you know???
I think my power tool usage is becoming disturbing.. I taught myself to drive the tractor a couple weeks ago... I had to unload tree limbs off the trailer.. I accidentally ripped a board off the trailer too.. it was easily replaceable so I wasn’t bothered at all.... I don’t think my husband was near as proud as I was... LOL
I just watched the trailer. It looks pretty good.. so i dont know lol
Did I show y’all my new additions? My sister made these for me for a birthday present.. the same sister who made Cinder’s collar and any other nice stuff I may have posted. We are total opposites.. lol 
That is what I fished for the 15 years every summer until the accident. I was thinking about becoming a charter captain. I would have been up there right now except for this darn virus.
Wow that sounded like a amazing trip. Where do the birds come from?Good evenooning all. I have been busy this weekend.
On Saturday we helped daughter load her car ready ro move back to her flat permanently... it was a true three dimensional jigsaw puzzle in such a small car.
Then we celebrated Father’s Day a day early with Son and Daughter cooking an amazing dinner.
On Sunday, Daughter returned to her flat and JoesDad and I visited his parents. We haven’t seen them since Christmas. Under the current lockdown rules, we can only go places on a day trip and must keep our distance and only go indoors to use the bathroom.
My mother in law suffers badly from anxiety and depression so we made careful plans. We took EVERYTHING... camping chairs and a small camping table, lunch, a flask of coffee, bottles of water and a bag containing masks, towel, soap and cleaning wipes so we could go to the bathroom touching as little as possible and wipe anything we did touch on the way out.
The weather was a bit changeable and windy, but we stayed dry and had a lovely long chat in their garden.
I wish it wasn’t so far to visit my Mum.
I came hime from the rescue with a car full of birds ... and a hedgehog... for release. More Blue T its, Starlings, Dunnocks (small sparrow type birds), a European Robin (smaller that what you Americans call a Robin) and two Great Spotted Woodpeckers. (Remember the bird perched on my shoulder?)
It’s hard to tell what has stuck around apart from the woodpeckers. They decided they liked peanuts and monopolised our peanut feeder for the afternoon. Not a great photo as it was taken through the kitchen window. You can see one of our trail cameras directed at the fat feeder behind the bird. Hopefully the woodpeckers will discover the fat and I’ll get trail camera pictures of them.

The hedgehog can’t be released until the evening as they’re nocturnal. I have tried to position its carrier so our trail camera catches it venturing out. Fingers crossed for pictures tomorrow! ?
Those are soooooo cute!
Mine dont end up with spines. Just a brown scab. I have picked up a spine in my finger a few times from the pad but it's it's the flower buds you don't want to handle.
I actually saw recipes online for cooking them. They are a regular veggie for seniorittas to cook up for her family.

Those succulent tortoises are going to be awesome! Unless the real torts get a hold of them...
That birdy camera Joe's Mum was talking about. I need one.
Oh my garsh...
That's why I use hand tools as much as possible. I'm a clutz and ALWAYS was.
And so the big fish that’s still there is going to grow even bigger.. and next year when we look at your fishing prize, we are all going to be totally blown away;-)
I stopped at a home made taco stand the other day where they where advertising tamales... there was a senorita at a counter working on a big pile of those pads... unfortunately they were not ready to open yet and I left with nothing:-(
I did think that far ahead and I placed them on my front walk edging.. like guards.. no tortoises there!!! I just hope I can keep them alive.. it was pretty special that my sister attempted to make them for me because we all joke that she has a black thumb... they were very over watered when I received them with some turning yellow... in the picture I posted, they were still in her care and I joked to her that my tortoises might stop peeing on her drive if she wouldn’t give them so much water ?
