Hunting For Fog Spiders Today

 


That's not smoke today but real fog. Ideal opportunity for hunting Fog Spiders.


The other side of the lake is missing. A chilly early morning temp is 41 degrees Fahrenheit. 

 Interesting tidbit: This temperature scale is named after Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit (1686–1736), a German physicist. But why do Americans still use the Fahrenheit scale and not Celsius like the rest of the world?



Lund boat waiting for Bob.



Quick! Get your ducks in a row! But silly they are goslings. Now the two families have joined forces and seem to have found safety by Bob's boat.




While shooting the gaggle, look who swims past. Scouts and I surely hope they do not like what they see.

Zucchini is Planted and Good to Grow
Cold mornings so far. Sunday low reached 41 degrees.




My hammer and nail experience - all by myself. Way to go K!
Now to find out if the Amazon man reads the new sign tomorrow.

Larry is solo again this year. We will see what the summer brings.

Oddly there seems to be a void of train whistles. Wonder what is going on?

Welcome Bird


 Opening Day 2023

This little bird must have been awaiting my arrival. By the white corner of the raft, he must have been perching there for a while.


Almost out the door.


Bundles and bags packed.
