The blueberries are dead!

" ... After the 80 degree days the blueberry bushes began to bloom. And then 7 nights of subfreezing temperatures damaged most all blossoms. We have experienced nearly a 100% crop loss. We do not expect to be open for picking this year. Watch for further updates as we assess the damage ..."

This is terrible news for blueberry-heads like me.

The boy becomes an eagle scout

I don't understand Boy Scouts but I love my son.

For the past 10 years he's been a scout. At first I thought it was all about the uniform but it turns out that he loved the camping and getting merit badges and now he's an EAGLE. He got a special pin and a plaque and a framed certificate and letters of congratulations from politicians and a U.S. flag that flew over the capitol at his ceremony last week.

There were two kinds of barbeque served -- pork and venison -- and a decorated cake. It was a good time.

Jack, I'm proud of you.

Peeps

Apologies all around for not posting about Easter or Passover this year. Sorry. We were heathens.

Let me try to make it up to you:

-- Peeps for Passover

-- Yellow Dress

-- Peep on Peep Violence

What do YOU like to do with Peeps?
