Fresh Veggies


Its November 24th and I just pulled this bounty out of the garden. Year 'round gardening here in Texas. There are a bunch of small bell peppers and egg plants still coming in and I'm hoping some forecasted cold temps (its 84F today) don't kill everything off while we're in Avon, MN this weekend.

Oh.. and high temp in Avon on Thursday, 19F! Awesome! I can't wait for some cold and snow. Mindy is not thrilled but did find her long johns.

Happy Thanksgiving to All!

Turtle Time



So I had an escapee from my pond when a turtle that I had raised for 8 months disappeared. So i've taken to going down to the local retention pond to hunt for turtles. I snagged a real small one and relocated him to the pond. I've caught and released two others, one of which was full of eggs and I saw her digging a hole to lay them. Seen a couple of BIG snakes down there too, but they are more scared of me than me of them.

Still looking for another small turtle for the pond. The hunt continues....
