Cherries, and Liberty

 Our young cherry tree is

slowly growing bigger

each year and producing   

  more cherries than the previous year.

 This year I harvested six

cups of cherries, enough to make

cherry sauce for future desserts.

The tiny jars are tucked away in the freezer.

That was my big accomplishment

for the week.

I left some fruit on the 

tree for the crows.

They're happily harvesting

their cherries and leaving the pits

and a sticky mess on the fence top 

nearby.

Meanwhile,

Liberty is doing well.

We're extremely tired.

Libby will be seven weeks old 

tomorrow, the 13th.

She likes chewing everything...

fingers,

toes,

sandals,

shoes,

and their laces,

Conner,

rocks,

irrigation lines,

spiders,

her bedding,

hair, 

ears,

my plants,

grass,

wrought iron kitchen stool legs,

wood,

twigs,

pipes,

mushroom compost,

dirt,

wood furniture legs,

wood furniture drawer pulls,

and her tail.

~~~

I'm leaving at 6AM tomorrow

for my girls get away trip to

the coast.

Rick is taking time off

to care for the little one

while I'm gone.

.... evil grin ....
