I only fed him one time.  Now, I can't get rid of him.  He hangs on my screen door begging me for more peanut butter.  I'm no longer able to go in the backyard.  Yet, I find the whole thing entertaining.

This painting would great in a space that is light orange, yellow, blue, navy, deep red, or gray.

Meerkat Assembly Plant

Meerkat Assembly Plant, 2014

Science and technology can improve the meerkat.  To challenge what it means to be a meerkat.  Why be only 10 inches tall when you could be six foot tall?  Demand for large meerkats is expected to high as insect and lizard populations are projected to explode due to global climate change.  Of course, this will help Mother Nature stay in balance.

This drawing would look great in any space with its neutral color and frame.

D'OH! A DEER! A FEMALE DEER!

 The deer have been visiting more frequently again.  Still waiting to see the new fawn again.

 Saw this guy while moving the vegetable garden to a new location.  They seem to really like the natural meadow design we're implementing.

If I had a saddle, I could ride this guy.  Not afraid of us at all.

Dog Days of Summer

Scout has a new buddy to play with, Brooklyn.  She loves playing with bigger dogs.  I like it because it means one full day of her sleeping.

BELLA!  Add another day of sleeping!

Bella:  Mike!  Scout won't play with me.

Mike: Scout, get outta there.

Scout: But I so tired and Bella can't get me here...

Unfortunately, I can't get her there either.

BEST DUMPSTER DIVE FIND EVER!  Any out there looking for a backhoe?

#PIZZA.  This is some of my favorite chalk art we found at Cobbles Elementary.  

 Nothing like making dinner over a bonfire on a weekday.

Now that's a beautiful flame.

Mmmm...  Brats!

Embers after a good night at the backyard pit

HAMBURGER!  No?  A quinoa and lentil burger.  Mmmm.

Haven't seen much of the deer lately.  But, yesterday I did see a doe and fawn race through the neighborhood.  It's a pretty fresh fawn since it didn't look much bigger than Scout.
