On the ground, in the air

 We had our septic tank fixed on Tuesday. The dude said we (I) should cut the grass and weeds over the septic bed. It is easier than paying for a new septic system ($25,000)! The roots could damage the septic bed. The bed is larger than I thought. I was so sad! There aren't enough wild flowers to my mind. 


This is the before!

The bees and monarchs love the Viper's Bugloss.... goodbye!



I wasn't happy. I don't think I chewed up any frogs. Last time it was a milk snake... 😢 next, I have to take down that sapling in the other side of the ditch. I've not got a plan for that, yet.

I spotted a Gray Tree Frog on the table out front.




People were wondering what this flight was all about! It even made the CBC news. In this climate, you never know what the US Administration is up to. A former NORAD officer believes it is a training flight. No one would talk about it from the government. It is really noisy, apparently. It came from Bangor, Maine. The USAF has a YouTube video which show the outside and inside up close.

Also up in the air this Northrop Grumman RQ-4B Global Hawk flying at 53,000' over the Black Sea. They are amazing machines.

🥇 It's terrific having uplifting news!  🥇  Hardworking young people!

The septic tank issue is saddening. Losing this space of beauty is a downer for sure. I know you will make the area beautiful though.

How close is the tank to the surface?

Good question! I'm not sure.
