Leaf holes?
So out here lots of things are new. My green bean leaves were never riddled with holes in the city, so what could it be? Ah, yellow jackets!
Gardening Fun
Whoa, I am so excited, found my first cherry tomatoes on the vine this am. I planted so late this year I was concerned what would actually produce. Happy moment in the field for this farm mom!!

Our Chickens Grow Up
Well here we have our chickens in the teenage phase. Like most teenagers, sometimes they surprise us. Well these are NOT hens, they are roosters. Just like teenage boys whose voices change a rooster learning to crow has a halting cracking crow that sounds very forced. It takes them weeks of practice to get their crowing down. Just long enough for you to identify them and return them to the feed store, before your neighbors are at your door. They are beautiful but just too loud to be fair to the neighbors. We loved their wild feathers and long quick strides across the yard, but farewell dear boys the girls will have to survive without you!
