a moth the size of a butterfly

there's a LOT of work to do . . .

before i even had a chance to discuss my abhorrence for yard work, brady cut the sleeves off his t-shirt and re-configured the sprinkler system, took down the rotten trellis, and pulled out a bunch of dead ferns.

if he wasn't outside, he was in the attic moving insulation and laying cables . . .

and (clearly) always practicing proper safety precautions.  i'd say that all around, progress is slowly being made.  in the meantime, we've had a few more guests aside from the lizards, moths and bees . . .

ok, so this one is still a moth, but it was seriously the size of a butterfly!!

brady noticed these little 'coon prints in the mud.  i found the same prints on my car the other day . . . b acting like a little 'coon, per my request :).

on a non-animal note, b got me looking at this really funny blog called 'failblog'.  a few recent funny entries from it below:

please note, must watch multiple times to truly appreciate.  I had tears streaming down my face by the 4th watch.  the song literally doesn't miss a beat.  fancy that!
