The Woods

Spent a little time in the woods this afternoon. I was happy to be able to harvest a grey squirrel.

Squirrel season opened a couple weeks ago here in Missouri. This is the first one I’ve taken since season opened.

I love spending time in the woods. Things move at a different pace there.

Garlic Scapes

Trimming garlic scapes this evening. Looking forward to harvesting bulbs soon, Lord willing.

Stormy Day

Lot of severe weather in the area today. In the nearby city of Springfield, there was terrible hail. It did a lot of damage.

The same storm continued to our place but, thank the Lord, we had no damage. I was at work when the storm came and I was worried about the homestead. Jessica made sure the house was ok, but with smaller storms moving through all day, she wasn’t able to get to the garden.

When I got home, I was so thankful to find the plants healthy. There is water standing in places, but that will drain quickly. Thank the Lord for His protection!
