Poor Joe has been fighting a cold. He's got congestion. Thank goodness for the puffer. He's been wheezy.
I'm having trouble getting up some motivation. I finally did it. Cleaned up some debris and junk. That meant a dump run. We drove through town, all loaded up.
This apartment building, newly built, is still for sale. I cannot imagine being a landlord these days. It's been a saga from an old house being torn down to a new build. It's been on sale for $1,475,000! There are 4 apartments, rented for $2300 apiece.
Such a relief to get that done. It was a $5 fee.
I am hoping to spot fawns on the trailcams. Nothing so far! We've two pregnant does.
Cinnamon spotted a frog on the goldfish pond.
Fred and her kits. She is so careful with them.
Loved the video of Fred and her kits! Such cute little characters!
ReplyDeleteRick has a duplex he rents next door, plus the other side of what he lives on. (I'll move there in a few years.) I wish he'd sell the next door one. It's a pain.
ReplyDeleteThe log home is pretty! I love the deer and your kitty, great photos.
ReplyDeleteTake care, have a great day!
What a full and heartfelt update—thank you for sharing life’s quiet victories and tender moments. It’s good to hear that you managed the cleanup despite the low motivation; those small accomplishments do so much for the spirit. Hoping Joe feels much better soon—congestion can be so draining. The local sights, from log homes to trails and wildlife, offer such a comforting backdrop to the daily rhythm. I was especially touched by your mention of Jayden’s memorial—these community markers really bring perspective. Looking forward to hearing more about Fred and the kits.

Poor Cinnamon, just couldn't get at the frog no matter what! Loved the little fat ground hog kits.
ReplyDeleteThose are very large log homes.
ReplyDelete#75 must be quite traumatized by what has happened to him.
ReplyDeleteThat's expensive rent! Take our Orange Idiot with you on your next dump run please. Linda in Kansas
ReplyDeleteBeautiful wildlife photos and I love the log cabins as well. Nice to see work being done to clean up.
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine anyone affording those apartments. Places to rent in our area used to be affordable as people here don't have a lot of $$. Now tiny apartments are being rented out for big money.
ReplyDeleteWe love the look of log houses too. Almost tore our house down and put a log house up. At that time we decided not to because of the log maintenance.
No fawns around here yet either. They usually show up after the first few days of June in our area.
You gave us a good tour, sad about the young man. Loved the videos again and looking forward to seeing more of Fred. I hope Joe's cold disappears quickly. We will be going to our dump soon. My sister and brother-in-law need to leave their truck at our house and we have the use of it for two weeks. That means many trips back and forth to the dump and I never thought I would be that excited about it as they said we could use it for whatever :)
ReplyDeleteI like the log homes. I wouldn't want to be a landlord either.
ReplyDeleteCinnamon looks v interested in the frogs. Those log homes are lovely. And house prices obscene.
ReplyDeleteStrange behavior with #75
ReplyDeleteThe colds this season have been terrible. I don't know anyone who hasn't had one.
ReplyDeleteMisinformation and downright lies are so common these days it’s becoming routine. And so many people don’t take the time to acquaint themselves with the truth.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe how the prices of homes are rising here. Crazy. So fun to see all those little guys. The deer have been scarce lately here but lots of turkey moving through.
