Thursday Sunset and Stuff

It's a little scary. Things are going pretty well. Other than the mountain of weeds at Last Hurrah and in the pond we're catching up on stuff that needed to be done. There are virtually no hawks and few ravens to prey on the songbirds. Even with Jax gone for a week few rock squirrels venture on the porch and the only vehicle that has been hit is Linny's Jeep with wires chewed and it wasn't parked out where Jax patrols though we might start if and when he returns.

Haven't see the Big Horn in a couple of weeks but there are Mule deer everywhere on the property. Walking outside at dark the Gray fox are lined up four to six deep usually waiting for hot dogs. 30 and 40 hot dogs night are the norm again. The baby skunks are still hilarious. They love their hot dogs they are so small they just aren't very good at carrying them around on the porch. Ringtails are between one and three most nights. There are two families of raccoon babies showing up. Probably ten or so total of them.

Linny is returning to school in Salt Lake middle of September and I truly wouldn't have made it without her the last four or so months so got to find a replacement as bookings for September plus two weddings are really going to stretch the resources and I can't do it by myself and one of the best parts of living out here is Kobae will start hiking here in the next few weeks or so and I really enjoy going with him so a good person to help is going to be a necessity if I'm going to be able to spend some time with Kobster before he returns to San Diego for the winter. Something will happen.
