Tuesday, March 22 through Thursday, March 24 He looked pretty in the late afternoon sunlight on Tuesday. A pretty sunset on Wednesday night. I was surprised to see a robin at our suet on Thursday afternoon. It’s not often that a robin is seen at our suet. They usually prefer worms.

More pictures from my morning at the mud sale that is less than two miles from our house. This tent was filled with a lot of men and only a few women. This one was filled with many women – and a few men. This is where I have to resist buying things that I don’t need […]
