He knew he didn't belong inside at 10:30 p.m.!
With the promise of freedom, he took himself out of the corner.
He was so grateful to be back where he belonged he didn't even pee on me!

This Fall (or when the humidity dries up)
- Brush in woods cut back again
- Coreopsis in the front bed moved back from the sidewalk
- Grass removed from the Kitchen Garden and replaced with newspaper and pine needles
- Rose removed from patio trellis
- Trees that are dead and sick in the yard cut down
Next time...
- Add compost and leaf mold to the kitchen garden beds this fall, not in the spring
- Plant lots of peas and corn instead of just a few seeds
- Cover the beds with black cloth so I can get a head start on tomatoes, squash and melons
How we arrived...
"I found an unbelievable house, it's worth no more vacations for a place like this." It was my Dad. I looked at the picture and read the description. It was incredible, but out of our price range and I like vacations. Then, on the way to see another, my realtor drove me by a beautiful house on an incredible lot; it was the Dad House. The price dropped and after six months of waiting, the Dad House was ours!

He looks so sad on the second picture. I am glad he could get back out:)
He really does, doesn't him. I often think how lucky animals are that our family cares. So many people would have swatted the poor fellow.
